Butser Ancient Farm Archive 1973-2007

Part of: EXARC Experimental Archaeology Collection

Butser Ancient Farm was founded in 1973 as a place to conduct research into Prehistoric & Roman Agriculture and Building Techniques through experimentation. Dr. Peter Reynolds was the founding Director. This collection complements the Butser Ancient Farm Archive 1973-2007 (http://www.butser.org.uk/index.html) by preserving publications by Dr Reynolds. Christine Shaw, who oversees the archive, generously contributed these materials to the EXARC collection. EXARC thanks her for her dedication to preserving the Butser Ancient Farm Archive.
