EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this vintage print capturing an archaeological dig near Swanscombe, possibly from the 1930s. The image offers a glimpse into the early days of archaeology in Kent, showcasing a group of researchers carefully excavating and documenting their findings.
The scene is reminiscent of Victorian and Edwardian exploration expeditions, with workers dressed in traditional attire and using rudimentary tools to uncover artifacts buried beneath the earth. Lantern slides were likely used to capture these moments, preserving them for future generations to study and appreciate.
As you peer closer at the details within the photograph, you can almost feel the excitement and anticipation that must have filled the air as each new discovery was unearthed. The dedication and passion of these early archaeologists shines through in their meticulous work, laying the foundation for modern-day archaeological practices.
This snapshot from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection is not just a window into the past but also a testament to human curiosity and perseverance. It serves as a reminder of our collective quest to unravel mysteries of civilizations long gone, making us ponder what stories these ancient relics hold within them.
