Event Details

It's National Dog Week! Did you know that dogs were the first animal that humans domesticated? They have held a special place in our societies ever since. Acting as guards, guides to the underworld, companions, and hunters, they have played many parts throughout history. Join archaeologist and PhD researcher Ellen Green for an exploration of what roles dogs had in the ancient world and how our canine friends have been there for us for 29,000 years.
