This talk outlines the importance of Kent to the work and thinking of Augustus Pitt-Rivers - from his time as Instructor in Musketry at Hythe, to his excavations at Castle Hill (Caesar's Camp) in Folkstone, and his role in the scheduling of the Neolithic monument Kit's Coty House in his role as Inspector of Ancient Monuments. Introducing the major re-assessment of Pitt-Rivers' work and life presented in Dan's new book Every Monument Will Fall: a story of remembering and forgetting, the talk will set Pitt-Rivers' activities in the county in the context of contemporary debates over heritage, museums, monuments, public memory — and the so-called 'culture war'.
Dan Hicks FSA, MCIfA is Professor of Contemporary Archaeology at the University of Oxford, Curator of World Archaeology at the Pitt Rivers Museum, and a Fellow of St Cross College Oxford. His most recent book is Every Monument Will Fall: a story of remembering and forgetting (Penguin 2025). Instagram/Bluesky: @ProfDanHicks
