Prof. Mike Parker Pearson | The New Archaeology of Stonehenge | Megalithomania 2021

Описание: Watch the Q&A with Mike here:    • Prof. Mike Parker Pearson Stonehenge Q&A |...  . Recent scientific advances in archaeology are having a considerable impact on our understanding of who built Stonehenge and why. This talk examines the evidence from ancient DNA, isotopic analysis, geological identifications and other methods that have revolutionised our knowledge of the British Neolithic and of the builders of Stonehenge, from moving the bluestones from Wales to building the great complex of timber monuments at nearby Durrington Walls.

He is also a Fellow of the British Academy and was voted Archaeologist of the Year in 2010 for his research on Stonehenge.
