DESCRIPTION:The Archaeology of the Flag Fen Basin 1982-2026 \nThis talk will present forty-four years of archaeological investigations of the Flag Fen Basin. The talk begins with the discovery of Flag Fen in 1982\, and the work of the Fenland Archaeological Trust (the first twenty years)\, and continues with a detailed description of the Cambridge Archaeological Unit’s excavations at Bradley Fen\, Horsey Hill and Must Farm (2000-2025). The final part of the presentation returns to Flag Fen and shares the latest work at the site including new ideas regarding the monument’s context and interpretation in light of the adjacent excavations. \nSpeaker: Mark Knight\, Senior Project Officer\, Cambridge Archaeological Unit \nMark Knight\, was the Dig Director of Must Farm excavations for the CAU.
