THOUSANDS of years of North-East history will come under the spotlight at an event next month.
Tees Archaeology is running a day school at the University of Durham's Stockton Campus on Saturday, November 6, at which leading archaeologists will talk about aspects of North-East archaeology from prehistoric times onwards.
Speakers at the event, which is open to the public, include Paul Frodsham, of Northumberland National Park, Nick Hodgson, of Tyne and Wear Museums, and freelance archaeological consultant Blaise Vyner.
Robin Daniels, an archaeology officer at Tees Archaeology, said: "Covering a span of about 8,000 years, this event aims to summarise and assess the archaeological knowledge which the North-East has gained so far, and pose the question of where we should go from here.
"It is sure to be a stimulating and thought-provoking day, and is aimed at members of the public who already have some knowledge of archaeology."
Tickets to the event are £8, and £5.25 for pensioners, the unwaged and students, excluding lunch, or £13 and £10.25 including lunch.
