What can ancient human skeletal remains tell us?
Dale will let us know more about how osteologists work in association with archaeological fieldwork and archive collections. with some examples of pathology and trauma. Examples will be presented from local collections and will include the Anglo-Saxon Cemetery discovered at Minerva Park, an area near to the edge of Alwalton and close to the river Nene.
