A photo from the website, of finds from an excavation of a domestic site
An exploration of the 'hidden histories' of early 20th century Britain, through investigation of domestic contexts. There is an emphasis upon the exploration of social identities, and of ways in which written sources, oral histories, and social memories might be used in conjunction.

South America - archaeology of the early 20th century
Some interesting finds (mostly C19, but some of the collections seem to include EC20) recorded by the Buenos Aires Centre for Urban Archaeology - includes some great photos of domestic material, some of which come from Britain (Google Translate works well enough to understand most of the text, for those who can't read Spanish). Well worth a visit...
