Recent research in to the causes of conflict over access to ancient sites, such as Stonehenge, has been reported in National Geographic.


The research, by Robert Wallace (an archaeologist at American University in London) and Dr Jenny Blain (an anthropologist from Sheffield Hallam University) concludes that "alternative site users" should be given a larger role in making decisions about how such monuments are used and managed.

The full text of the article can be viewed here.

The research is part of the Sacred Sites, Contested Rites/Rights project - many other related papers can be found on the project’s website here.
