The Hungate excavation is the biggest ever archaeological dig in York city centre. The archaeologists will be uncovering 2000 years in the life of York until the end of 2011.
Highlights of the dig will include uncovering part of a 1,700 year old Roman cemetery, what Viking Age life was like alongside Hungate 1000 years ago and how people used the land in medieval times.
Hungate is a unique dig where you can come and see the past unfolding in front of your eyes, where new discoveries are made every day.
