Archaeology at the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Collection

This programme is part of Archaeology at the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ - a
collection of archaeology programmes from the 1950s to the 1970s. Available
online to watch in full.
About ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Four Collection programmes
Programmes are selected, in part, for their historical
context and reflect the broadcast standards and attitudes of their time, which
may not accord to some current ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ editorial guidelines. We aim to select
programmes which can be shown in their entirety but in some cases edits are
required. In these cases, edits are kept to a minimum and are made only for
technical reasons.
