The aging ‘Red Lady of Paviland’
Elizabeth Walker, Curator of Palaeolithic & Mesolithic Archaeology
The story of the discovery of the 'Red Lady' of Paviland Cave takes us back to 1823 when the remains we first found.
The remains have recently been redated to be 29,000 years old. The story of the Red Lady is fascinating as it has gradually been revealed over the past 200 years.

Dr Mark Redknap, Medievalist
The sword guard from the Smalls, found by a diver in 1991, is the finest example of late Viking metalwork from Wales.
Rediscovering its lost craftsmanship involved unexpected avenues of research. Find out how it was made.
