Research Seminar 2: The middle Bronze Age revolution?
มุมมอง 8603 ปีที่แล้ว
The years between 1500-1150 BC have often been seen as a key period of change in later prehistory.

It may be a good time to reassess these ideas, as sites are being discovered in regions where few or none were kn...

    What is going to happen to the site? There will be very detailed Ordnance Survey maps showing the exact layout of the various streets and courts available, and possibly images of the houses as they originally looked, and now that the groundwork is visible it's possible that a exact replica using recycled bricks, tiles, paving stones, etc could be built on the actual site or maybe in a museum.
