Dear Michlib-I,

Please join us at 3:00 PM on Saturday, June 19, 2021 for the program
Digging in the Shadow of the Shard. We will be welcoming Ellen Green from
across the Atlantic for an intriguing discussion about archaeological digs
in the city of London, UK.

Please find the event description below:

The city of London is a modern, thriving metropolis, a far cry from the
barren deserts and deserted jungles people picture archaeologists working
in. Yet the UK's capital city contains over 6000 years of history beneath
its streets, and a large number of archaeological digs. Ellen Green gives
us a look at the glorious, muddy practice of urban archaeology.

Ellen Green is a PhD researcher at the University of Reading in England,
specializing in human remains. Prior to her return to academia she was a
field archaeologist in London for 5 years, and has worked on sites from
every period in the city's history. She developed a love of archaeology
through many visits to Roman ruins and castles in the UK over many
vacations, which inspired a fascination with the past. She is also a big
fan of Indiana Jones.

This event will take place on Zoom. To attend, please register at

Best,
