SUMMARY:Archaeology Group Lecture: Ripples in the Gene Pool that made us who are we
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to welcome back the archaeologist and TV presenter Julian Richards for this month’s lecture. \nWhat do we expect when we send off a DNA test that offers to trace our distant ancestry? The reality is that the majority of us are an amazing\, but perhaps un-surprising mixture. In this talk archaeologist Julian Richards will explore the genetic history of the British Isles from hunter gatherers to Huguenots and beyond. And\, alongside the results of genetic studies\, Julian will also explore the evidence for invaders and settlers provided by archaeology. Together they provide fascinating windows into our shared past. \n\nThe Archaeology Group presents lectures on a range of facinating archaeological topics by local experts and academics. Everyone is welcome! \nThe lectures take place on the fourth Thursday of the month (usually)\, starting at 7:30. Tea and coffee are available to buy before the talks. \nAdmission to the talks is free for museum members (donations welcome)\, £3 for non-members. \n\nPlease see the Museum Events Calendar for the dates and details of all this year’s talks\, and the Archaeology Group page for more information about our activities.
