Saturday Talks
Sat Nov 14th	Peter Addyman: Highlights of York Archaeology 1972-2002 Stories of York's Archaeological Wealth Professor Peter Addyman persuaded the City of York to found the York Archaeological Trust in 1972 and was its director for the first thirty years. He was responsible for creating the Jorvik Viking Centre in Coppergate, and worked on many other projects which have enriched the city such as saving Barley Hall. He will talk about his years of service and imagination. Peter has served both as the President of York Civic Trust and of the Yorkshire Philosophical Society, which will celebrate its 200th anniversary in 2022. That is also the York Archaeological Trust's 50th birthday - so there could not be a more appropriate time for him to address us.
