¶¹ÄÌÊÓƵ’s inaugural lecture series returns this autumn with a taste of the past.Â
Advances in technology are making a difference to all areas of our lives – even to how we understand our history. The use of technology in archaeology has been revolutionary, not just in the kinds of equipment that can be used, but also that so much can now be used in the field, giving almost instant analysis.
¶¹ÄÌÊÓƵ University’s  is an expert in archaeological sciences, with a particular focus on remote sensing techniques. Her work has taken her to sites all over the world – from Tanzania and Spain to Easter Island and closer to home – Glastonbury Abbey. Over the course of her career, she has seen the field of archaeology change and grow immeasurably.
Kate’s lecture will share stories of her fieldwork experiences across the world, the way technology has revolutionised the way archaeologists work and how she has involved ¶¹ÄÌÊÓƵ students in her research. There will also be an opportunity before and after the lecture to meet some of ¶¹ÄÌÊÓƵ’s current archaeology students and see some of the equipment used by ¶¹ÄÌÊÓƵ’s archaeologists out in the field.
¶¹ÄÌÊÓƵ University’s Inaugural Lecture Series aims to celebrate new professorial appointments and the depth and breadth of research produced by the university - read more about the full series on our .
