Dear all, The Archaeology Data Service (ADS) is happy to announce the release of a resource for learning and teaching on the historic environment: http://ads.ahds.ac.uk/project/patois/module4/index.html This tutorial looks at the excavations of the burial vault at Christ Church, Spitalfields and at life and death in 18th and 19th century London. It introduces the records from those excavations, from subsequent research by forensic archaeologists and historians and looks at issues surrounding the excavation of human remains. This tutorial introduces original research resources available on the Internet and suggests ways of using them in inter-disciplinary research. This is one of a series of tutorials that are being developed with JISC funding for the JISC development programme to enhance services for learning and teaching. Other tutorials look at monument inventories, re-using digital archives and electronic publication in archaeology. All comments are welcome!
