During Michaelmas Term, OxTalks will be moving to a new platform (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
For now, continue using the current page and event submission process (freeze period dates to be advised).
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
The talk will detail the archaeological, osteological and historical detective work involved in the search for the remains of King Alfred, a collaboration between the University of Winchester and Hyde 900. The project was the focus of a BBC2 documentary in January 2014 and features in the book “The Search for Alfred the Great: The King, The Grave, The Legend”, co-authored by Katie Tucker with Edoardo Albert. The talk will include many details that do not feature in the documentary or the book.
