Join archaeologist Dr Jonny Gardner, ethnographer Professor Phil Cohen and public historian Dr Toby Butler who will be discussing five years of research and activities that went into the process of creating the Groundbreakers trail and guide to the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. How did these different disciplines and perspectives engage with the key themes of the guide? For example in understanding material culture, the relationship between the human and non-human worlds and the multiple temporalities which inform the site’s history and geography.
