James Canton: Ancient Wonderings: Journeys into Prehistoric Britain
Sorry, this event has sold out
The shadows of prehistory are not so far from our modern world. The practices that prove so revealing to us today, from stone circles and sacred markings to gold and tin mines, are still embedded in the makeup of our physical landscape.
In Ancient Wonderings James Canton travels the length of Britain in a quest to discover these treasures, beliefs and cultural practices. He explores the wonders of our natural history which occupied ancient minds - the night sky, shooting stars, the rising and setting sun - immersing himself in the contours, geography and geology of the landscape on a trail of prehistoric enlightenment.
"Intensely alive to the landscape; its pasts, people and creatures " Robert Macfarlane
