Hopes for Michael dig this weekend
Archaeologists are hoping to unearth a prehistoric burial mound in the west of the Island.
This Sunday, 2 July, a team headed by Dr Rachel Crellin and Dr Chris Fowler will begin excavating one of three mounds found at Cronk Guckley, outside Kirk Michael.
Of the 160 mounds on the Island, few have been examined using modern techniques - something this team of historians wants to change.
Their project aims to investigate these sites and artifacts, to understand more about Neolithic and Bronze Age life on the Isle of Man.
Dr Crellin told Manx Radio what the team might expect to find:
Plans submitted for rooftop solar array at NSC
Station Garage to undergo refurbishment as family owners 'taking a step back'
Man stole £50k from business woman based on the Island during Covid
Information Commissioner joins internal review of digital services used by young people
