Summary
<p>In this week’s episode Neil takes us to Salisbury to meet a <em>Time Traveller</em> from around four and a half thousand years ago who still has much to say.</p><br /><p>Neil uncovers the stories this remarkable man tells us about the journey he took, walking right across Europe to Wiltshire in a time when you could hear the banging and clattering of building work at Stonehenge. Known as the Amesbury Archer, our<em> Time Traveller</em> was a man of great status. When he died, he was buried surrounded by beautiful flint arrow heads, fine archer’s wrist guards, gold and other precious metals - the richest Bronze Age burial ever discovered in Britain.</p><p>Check out the Podcast Instagram Account - Neil Oliver Love Letter</p><hr /><p style="color: grey; font-size: 0.75em;"> Hosted on Acast.
