The Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology cares for some remarkable archaeological objects from Cambridgeshire. In this workshop Senior Curator of European Archaeology, Dr Jody Joy, will talk about some of his favourite objects from the local area, providing insights into the lives of people who have lived in the Cambridge region since the end of the last Ice Age, and revealing the new stories research into these objects has uncovered.
During this session you will go behind-the-scenes at the museum and get the opportunity to take a closer look at one of the museum's newest acquisitions, a beautiful gold posey ring.There will also be an opportunity during the workshop to handle some of the objects cared for by the museum.
This workshop will include a break mid-morning.
