It’s not often we get a film about how exciting archaeology is, so you know I had to do a video about Netflix’s new movie, The Dig! (available now!) Basil Brown discovered one of Britain’s greatest treasures, Sutton Hoo, and yet he was not acknowledged for his find until recently. Hear the true story behind The Dig and how classism rears it’s ugly head in the historical field, even today.
