Redesdale Lost Landscape and other projects  Popular
Redesdale contains a rich diversity of historic remains from Neolithic farming communities and Roman military occupation through to 19th Century Industry and First World War practice trenches. Through this project we aim to better understand and tell the landscape story of Redesdale, investigating its cultural heritage with local people through archaeological research and sharing the stories uncovered through creative interpretation. Projects include: The Redesdale Lidar Landscapes project (now completed) involved volunteers undertaking analysis of the valley using remote sensing data, known as Lidar, to reveal archaeology in the landscape. Redesdale Landscapes Through Time – Following on from the Lidar Landscapes project, this online research project will involve volunteers in looking in more depth at complex archaeological landscapes, exploring how areas and communities have developed over time.

Woruldhord - free online resources for the teaching and study of the Anglo-Saxons and Old English  Popular
The Woruldhord project is based at the University of Oxford and presents to you a collection of freely reusable educational resources to help you study or teach the period of English history centred on the Anglo-Saxons, or Old English (literature and language). This equates to a period of history roughly covering the mid-fifth century until the eleventh century. All the material held here was donated by members of the public, museums and libraries, academics, teachers, and societies. This then is a community collection created by a community of people for others to use. What will you find? The archive contains photographs, documents, presentations, databases, and more; covering objects, archaeological sites, poems, prose writings, and course material. It holds around 4,500 digital objects contributed by about 400 people or institutions. Anything you locate within Woruldhord can be freely reused for educational purposes under a Creative Commons Licence (CC-BY-NC-SA, see also Permitted Use).

Introduction to Landscape Studies free online course  Popular
We live, work and travel through landscapes - some of us in rural landscapes, some of us in urban ones. The influence of the landscape on how we live is often taken for granted and the way people have shaped the land over time is often little understood, particularly in rural landscapes. This online course provides a basic overview of how archaeologists look at and interpret landscapes to better understand their historic development. The course introduces some of the techniques used to investigate landscapes and the information and examples given relate to Lincolnshire and focus on rural landscapes. However, the techniques and methodologies discussed are also relevant outside the boundaries of the county. This course forms part of Lincolnshire's 3-year, Heritage Lottery Fund supported, Layers of History project that is giving volunteers the skills and knowledge to identify landscape features, undertake archaeological surveys, carry out archival research and investigate some of the county's less well-known historic sites.

The Times of Their Lives: Neolithic Dating  Popular
The Neolithic period in Europe, and elsewhere globally, is of enduring interest because it presents one of the great transformations in human history: the shift from small-scale hunter-gatherer communities to complex societies materially based on sedentary existence and a farming economy. The project offers ground-breaking progress towards the construction of much more precise chronologies for the Neolithic period in Europe, particularly focused on phases after initial transformations. Using a series of case studies from across much of the continent, we hope to provide much more precise timings of key features and trends in the European Neolithic sequence than are currently available, and to construct much more precise estimates of the duration of events and phenomena.

Neolithic Stepping Stones Project  Popular
The Stepping Stones project, directed by Duncan Garrow (University of Reading (previously University of Liverpool until Sept 2013)) and Fraser Sturt (University of Southampton), aims to answer important research questions about the arrival of the Neolithic in and around Britain and Ireland c. 4000 BC. The project, whose full title is Stepping stones to the Neolithic? Islands, maritime connectivity and the ‘western seaways’ of Britain, 5000-3500 BC, represents a research collaboration between the Universities of Reading/Liverpool and the University of Southampton. A key outcome of our research will be a series of educational web resources drawing on this research, including a ‘western seaways’ navigation game within a Google Earth ‘plugin’ and a visualisation that enables users to see how sea levels have changed in the past.
