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.

Speaker: Dale Munn

After a career in teaching and school leadership, Dale completed MScs in Landscape Archaeology and Forensic Archaeology. He has worked with human remains collections for the last two years at the Northants Archaeological Resource Centre (ARC), Peterborough and Leicestershire museums working directly with collections and assisting with training of volunteers.
