Dr Gabor Thomas Digs Deep to Inspire Students

The Associate Professor from the Archaeology department at the University of Reading speaks to A Level students.

Dr Gabor Thomas, Associate Professor from the Archaeology department at the University of Reading, visited The Henley College to talk to A Level Classical Civilisation and Ancient History students last week. 

Gabor spoke about his career, the recent local projects he's been actively engaged in and the degree-level courses on offer at the University of Reading. 

He told students about his current research excavations on the site of an early medieval monastery on the River Thames at Cookham, Berkshire, that is also a Field School for the Department of Archaeology. Cookham is situated within a wider collaborative initiative, The Middle Thames Archaeology Partnership, of which Gabor is a founding member and lead investigator, which aims to unlock the archaeological potential of this previously neglected stretch of the Thames.
