On Tuesday 28 July 2015, Wessex Archaeology took part in Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council’s Family Fun Day at Clifton Park Museum. Wessex Archaeology’s Jessica Irwin and Alex Cassels supervised our ever popular ‘Sands of Time’ sandpit excavation along with the sample sorting challenge, which requires the careful identification of various types of seeds from a sieved sample, including maize, millet and wheat.
