The 2022 archaeology conference took place in November.
The conference is held by City of York Council and York Archaeological Forum, an advisor to CYC on archaeology and the historic environment.
York Museums Trust (YMT) presented some of the engagement tools developed as part of their current Ryedale Hoard exhibition. In addition, there was a range of stalls from local organisations, and books for sale.
You can watch the 2022 talks on You Tube. The talks provided an overview of recent and ongoing projects, including:
- archaeological work in response to development within the city
- new research into the city’s Roman past
- management of the City Walls
- the new visitor experience and interpretation at Clifford’s Tower
