Synopsis:

Join curators Dr Neil Wilkin and Dr Jennifer Wexler for an introduction to our new exhibition The world of Stonehenge.
Contemporary with the Egyptian pyramids, Stonehenge is one of the most famous monuments in the world. The ancient stone circle, located on Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire, offers a unique gateway into the story of Britain and Europe between 4000 to 1000 BC; a period of dramatic cultural changes and long-distance connections that transformed society forever.
In this online event, curators Dr Neil Wilkin and Dr Jennifer Wexler will introduce the story, scope and themes of The world of Stonehenge, highlighting some of the key objects on display.
