Wicken Archaeology – the Wickenpedia
www.wicken-archaeology.org.uk
The 'Wickenpedia' was set up to accompany the archaeological investigations being carried out in Wicken by Cardiff and Leicester universities. It was set up using 'wiki' software (the same principle as Wikipedia), allowing anyone to contribute to or edit the pages and engage with the ongoing Wicken excavations. The idea is to develop collaboration between the archaeologists in the trenches and wider interested communities. The website includes details of the excavations at Wicken, including weekly updates and summaries; survey work, including fieldwalking and 'geophys'; and post excavation work, including finds processing and recording. It includes large numbers of photos and many other bits and pieces, including 'An Outsider's View Of Time Team' – a diary and other commentary by one of the people working on the universities' dig about Time Team's involvement in the village. It makes fascinating, albeit often critical, reading.
