The Great North Museum: Hancock has invited a very special guest to help launch their brand-new exhibition, 'Treasure: Hidden, Lost, Found'. Dr James Dilley is an experimental Archaeologist who founded ‘Ancient Craft’, an organisation focused on connecting people to their prehistoric heritage through interactive experiences, high-quality replicas & a wealth of knowledge of prehistoric lifestyle skills. For the opening weekend of 'Treasure', Dr James Dilley & Emma Jones will lead a living history display in the museum. They will be able to speak to visitors about the materials seen in the 'Treasure' exhibition & discuss how these items would have been used in prehistoric daily life.
