Who teaches on the Field School?
Professor Michael Fulford, Professor of Roman Archaeology at the University of Reading, directs the project. The Assistant Director of excavations is Amanda Clarke – she is also the Director of the Field School, and has worked for many years in field archaeology in Britain and abroad. Frances Taylor works full-time for the Silchester Project, and is particularly involved with the development of the on-site database. During the excavation season, at least 20 professional staff are employed as excavation supervisors and managers to ensure that the training and supervision received by the students are of a high standard.
