Many thousands of stone tools have been found in the ancient deposits of the East Kent River Stour, but what can they tell us about the many different human species that have lived in the region on and off over the last million years?
Pete Knwoles is evaluating historic museum collections of these enigmatic artefacts to establish if the varying stone tool types represent expressions of culture by ancient humans. The site near Reculver was the first site in Britain where these tools were recognised, as long ago as 1860, but until now, it has never been excavated!
In the summer of 2023, Pete led the first archaeological excavations here using modern scientific methods. This talk will summarise the findings and others made recently in the area and how these findings are contributing to new understandings of the ancient human occupation of Britain.
Ticket price includes entry to the museum, house and gardens.
