The Future of Our Past
Every year a little more of our history is eroded as archaeological sites all over Britain are ruined. In some areas more sites have been lost since the war than in the preceding four centuries. Barry Jones. Secretary of the Rescue Trust for British Archaeology, and Peter Clayton, author and archaeologist, will welcome your comments and questions on all aspects of archaeology. What is meant by industrial and rescue archaeology? Can anyone be involved in a dig or do amateurs destroy valuable evidence? What has been lost and what can we do to preserve what remains? How much can be learnt from techniques such as aerial photography?
