Unearthing the A14 : 50 objects from one of Britain’s biggest digs, Paperback / softback Book

Unearthing the A14 : 50 objects from one of Britain’s biggest digs Paperback / softback

Edited by Lily Hawker-Yates

Paperback / softback

Description

The archaeological excavations in advance of A14 Road Improvement Scheme in Cambridgeshire are among the biggest and most complex ever undertaken in the UK, revealing important archaeology of prehistoric, Roman, early medieval and medieval date. The fifty finds in this book have been chosen for the stories they tell us.

These artefacts are often the only evidence for many of the thousands of people who lived here before us.

Some stand out as beautiful or rare, treasured heirlooms left as grave goods for the dead.

Others tell us about ancient industry, and the lives of ordinary people from prehistory to today.

Between them, we get a glimpse into the diversity of Cambridgeshire’s ancient past, and the vast scale of the A14 scheme.
