Join us for the annual Out of London Meeting for the York Regional Group.
Hear from Nicola Milner OBE FBA FSA about the Yorkshire Museum’s exhibition Star Carr: Life after the Ice, an exciting and interactive exhibition which brings together wonderful artefacts from one the most famous Mesolithic sites in the world. Discover what human life was like 11,000 years ago, a few hundred years after the last Ice Age. Step back in time to the settlement at Star Carr in North Yorkshire and delve into how people settled, created, cooked and worshipped during the Mesolithic period (Middle Stone Age).
Nicola Milner is a British archaeologist and academic. She is head of the Department of Archaeology at the University of York. Her research focuses on the Mesolithic period, and the transition between the Mesolithic and Neolithic. She has worked at the iconic site of Star Carr in the Vale of Pickering for over 15 years, and has directed excavations at the site since 2004.
