On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
The Picts have fascinated for centuries. They emerged c. AD 300 as a noted enemy in Roman Britain and disappeared at the end of the first millennium AD during the Viking Age. Until recently the Picts have been difficult to trace due to limited archaeological investigation and documentary sources, but innovative new research has produced critical new insights into the culture of a highly sophisticated society who forged a powerful realm dominating much of northern Britain.
This talk will outline some of the major successes of the Northern Picts project at the University of Aberdeen, which recently won the Current Archaeology Research Project of the Year.
To be followed by a wine reception in the museum, finishing at 7pm.
