Archaeology Lunchtime Talk: Bringing the Past to Life

About

A talk on Bringing the Past to Life with Sally Pointer.

From furry coats to fashionable face creams. This is an insight into how experimental reconstructions of objects that rarely survive, and explorations into the methods used to create them, can help inform the ongoing archaeological process.

Sally has worked on projects as diverse as clothing the Neolithic Archer in the Origins exhibition, reconstructing a surviving face creams from a Roman deposit and soaps from 17thC medicine chests.
