Hungate - 2000 years of history about
to be revealed
Excavation at Hungate has started!
This archaeological project offers us
a rare and exciting opportunity to look at a slice
through 2000 years of York's history.
The excavation will uncover the largest
area of York to be exposed for over twenty-five years.
From 2006 - 2012
archaeologists will be working continuously, ahead
of redevelopment, to recover information about the
people of Hungate, their buildings and their way of
life.
There will be many ways in which you
can learn about these discoveries. The following pages
describe our hopes and expectations at the beginning
of this project and provide a background against which
we can examine our new discoveries.
The menu on the right will take you
to different periods in York's history.
