As soon as a bone is found its conservation journey begins. These bones can quickly dry out if they are not treated immediately. Whilst speed is of the essence, this material still needs to be handled with care to avoid any damage.

Cerney Wick:
Palaeocast was granted special access to 2024's excavations at Cerney Wick, allowing us to record media from within the field. On our website, you'll find hours of multimedia captured at different stages throughout the field season. We begin with a podcast that introduces the locality and details the plans for the upcoming dig, this is followed by several days of recording at the site itself and finally a record of the legacy of the year’s fieldwork.

Thanks to all the volunteers who have contributed to the multimedia in this series and especially to Laura Hobbs who has provided assistance throughout.
