Professor Mark Pearce, Professor of Mediterranean Prehistory, Department of Classics and Archaeology, University of Nottingham and exhibition curator presents this talk.

This talk will explore the reasons why more than 200 Bronze Age metal objects were deposited in the River Trent, and what these weapons – many of which are clearly of high status – can tell us about the warrior chiefs and their bands who lived along the river in the second and early first millennium BC.
