ECG: Using Scale Modelling to Assess the Prehistoric Acoustics of the Stonehenge

With social rituals usually involving sound, an archaeological understanding of a site requires the acoustics to be assessed. This talk details how this can be done with acoustic scale models – although this is an established method in architectural acoustics, it has not previously been applied to prehistoric monuments. How Stonehenge was used is much debated, but these results show that sounds were improved within the circle compared to outside.

This webinar is open to all members.

Zoom details will be emailed to delegates shortly before the event.
