The database standardises these numbers in the form, for example: 1887,0708.2427 (year: comma: block of four numbers - usually representing a month and day: full-stop and final number). The final number can be of any length and may be followed by another full-stop and a sub-number. In some cases the same number is shared by two or more objects across departments. In some of these cases a prefix has been added before a number (e.g. If the number you are entering has come from an old catalogue it could appear in the form 1887-7-8-2427.

Britain from Above | Rescue the Past The only place in the UK where you can ride in a Lancaster Bomber - Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre Primary History - Vikings The Spanish Armada Publication date: 9th December 2010 by Jon Nichol Spanish Armada Beacon This is a highly interactive and stimulating simulation for years 3 and 4, and a very effective way of involving children in a range of issues. We introduced the story of the Armada, outlining the main parties involved and the nature of the conflict. The lesson provides the children with a framework of ideas to map on to the actual events of the Spanish Armada. Prior knowledge assumed: Elizabeth and Philip, the conflict between Catholicism and Protestantism, and the Spanish assembly of an invasion fleet at Lisbon. Literacy: we are using mini-writing frames in the explanation genre, that is, introducing the connective "because" into the writing.

Tollund Man By Susan K. Lewis Posted 02.07.06 NOVA He has become the face of Iron Age Europe. But in 1950, when men cutting peat near the village of Tollund, Denmark, stumbled upon him, they thought he was a modern murder victim. The police, aware of similar ancient bodies, contacted the Silkeborg Museum, and various specialists—archeologists, forensic scientists, radiologists, paleobotanists, even dentists—later studied his body. Here, learn about their findings and get an intimate view of the 2,400-year-old man. Launch Interactive This 2,400-year-old corpse is the world’s most famous bog body. Hear Nobel laureate Seamus Heaney recite his poem "The Tollund Man."
