Back to Doggerland with Taken at the Flood, Rachel and James

23 Jun by Gaffney, Vince

SFS researchers, representing our Submerged Landscapes Research Centre, the AHRC project. Taken at the Flood, along with the Flemish Marine Institute, are on board the Simon Stevin Research vessle and have returned to the Brown Bank and Southern River to carry out survey and dredging to enhance our knowledge of these key archaeological areas and to refine methdologies for recovery of archaeological material from the deeper areas of the southern North Sea. Drs James Walker, Rachel Harding and Ruth Pletts (VLIZ) are on the Simon Stevin alongside AUV operators from VLIZ, and have begun retrieval of material and detailed mapping of these areas.

More to come – but you can also follow the progress of the Simon Stevin live at https://www.vliz.be/en/what-we-do/infrastructure-supply/research-vessels
