Latest research in the Department
New research reveals a 3,500-year-old suit of Mycenaean armour may have been used in battle and not just for ceremonial purposes as previously thought. The research was conducted by an international team of researchers, including Dr Ken Wardle, Senior Lecturer in Classics, Ancient History and Archaeology.
