In addition to Neolithic and Bronze Age artifacts, excavations at the West Deeping quarry uncovered a Roman village.
Cooking and eating ceramics were among the earliest artifacts.
On Saturday from 13:00 to 17:00 BST, a free display of some of the discoveries will be held in the village hall of West Deeping.
“We have all of the periods right up to Saxon in the 6th Century, so this site isn’t just Neolithic, Bronze Age, or Roman,” said Hannah Barrett, a project officer with the Cambridge Archaeological Unit.
According to her, each of these eras is portrayed and has a compelling tale to tell.
That, in my opinion, is what makes it so fascinating.
She stated that “the largest assemblage” of pottery ever discovered in East Anglia or the East Midlands was proof of the later Neolithic period.
In order to demonstrate what they were hunting and consuming, scientists also discovered animal bones and environmental samples of grain and seed.
According to Ms. Barrett, the terrain would have been “wild” at the time, with bears and wild boar.
She stated, “You feel like they must have been really hard people to live there.
