74. Iron Age Women and Identity
Henge
Everyone’s heard of Boudicca and the Iceni, but what was the real story of power and identity in the Iron Age? Dr Rebecca Wragg Sykes joins world-leading scholars Professor Melanie Giles and Professor Rachel Pope to explore the exciting new picture of Iron Age cultures emerging from recent archaeological research. From its origins and diversity across Eurasia, to the distinctiveness of societies in Britain and the varied expressions of power and authority of women, we look at the evidence for how Iron Age people understood themselves and each other.
