Learners will be able to understand an overview of the later period of Winchester through archaeological discovery, from the time of King Edgar up to the First World War.
By the end of this workshop, students will be able to analyse specific archaeological investigations such as excavations, and assess what we can learn from them and their contribution to the history of Winchester, and which methods could be suggested for future use.
This is part 2 of 2 workshops. This workshop will focus on the later Saxon/Viking period up to the time of the First World War, via the changing Medieval to Tudor times, and the final outbreak of the Great Plague in the 17th century.
Who is this course for: Anyone with an interest in the past, and how it can be investigated.
Previous knowledge or experience: No previous knowledge is required but an interest in past lives helps.
What shall I bring: Bring notebooks, pencils, pens, a clear ruler and plenty of enthusiasm!
Next steps: A programme of introductory course on different time periods and themes at the Discovery Centre (if not already attended) Plus information on Societies to join and sites and museums to visit, and finally more in depth local courses to attend to increase knowledge and understanding of archaeology today
