Nature recovery and past material traces can be linked in countless creative ways. Last week, 'Rewilding' Later Prehistory visited Hepple Wild, Northumberland with Rose Ferraby. Inspiring rewilding, cool archaeology and common interests in the spirituality of place #WildWednesdays
Remains of mistletoe recovered from a ditch at Wardy Hill Iron Age Ringwork, Ely. Despite its druidic associations, mistletoe was likely present here chiefly as a parasite of mature hawthorn hedges, planted atop the Ringwork’s banks. Image: CAU #WildWednesdays #Archaeology

Collaboration is key to 'Rewilding' Later Prehistory research! Last week, we explored interpretative commonalities with Fenscapes Cambridge Archaeology & Animals and Society in Bronze Age Europe. This week, Alice Dobinson is sampling horse bone Oxford School of Archaeology for dating Oxford Radiocarbon Accelerator Unit & aDNA analysis CAGToulouse #WildWednesdays
Must Farm pile-dwelling, Cambridgeshire: a rare window into Late Bronze Age settlement and into the richness of prehistoric people’s engagement with wildlife. It was a privilege working with Cambridge Archaeological Unit colleagues and fabulous specialists galore in making these books

Hallucinogenic, painkiller and sedative or merely a weed? We frequently come across henbane in a range of archaeological features, from the Bronze Age onwards, so it's fascinating to see evidence of Roman medicinal use from the Netherlands! #WildWednesdays bit.ly/3OCCHvl
“We are not trying to recreate the bronze age landscape, but we are using the knowledge we have gained about the natural processes that first formed the habitat [...to inform how the area is managed in the future.]' #WildWednesdays #Archaeology
