DNA and Archaeology

This morning, we had another visit from the Genome Campus as part of the Science Festival.


They were telling us all about our DNA and what archaeologists do to find out as much information as they can about people from the past. 





We even got to have a go at digging in some sand for archaeological items, which was really fun! We had to be really careful and gentle when using the tools.



 Using clues from the items, we were able to work out that the person must have been alive in the Roman time period.
