Reorganising the Neolithic

Excavations

King Arthurs Stone Herefordshire 2021

In 2024 two local primary schools chose the Neolithic period module from the year 4 curriculum (8 year olds) and asked BAS to start the session rolling.  This presentation is not the one prepared for the schools but covers the more recent excavations and studies that I researched to provide current evidence and to extend the curriculum’s content.
