In this special live broadcast, Dr Edward Shepherd will explore the most recent developments in our understanding of Stonehenge and the Neolithic society which constructed this enduring and iconic symbol of ancient human creativity.

Drawing on recent technological advancements, this online talk will discuss Dr Shepherd’s primary research on the animal remains from Stonehenge, the shocking new aDNA results (ancestral DNA analysis), mobility studies (multiple isotope analysis), evidence for Britain’s earliest plague victims, and the impact of ever-more precise radiocarbon dates to our understood chronologies.
