Wessex Archaeology’s highly-skilled team of environmental and geoarchaeological specialists provide a comprehensive range of services covering all aspects of environmental archaeology, from advice and project design through to specialist fieldwork projects, sample processing, assessment, analysis and publication.
Our team of specialists are expert at analysing environmental material from fieldwork and specialist-led projects in order to investigate, interpret and reconstruct the environments and economies of human communities in the past. Results are analysed at our large purpose-built processing facilities and laboratories which give us the capacity to deal with even the largest fieldwork projects in-house, to the standards and turnarounds expected by clients and stakeholders.
