The Videos section of the Kent Archaeological Society website brings together a growing collection of filmed content exploring the archaeology, history, and heritage of Kent. This includes recorded lectures, conference presentations, site visits, project documentaries, and themed talks produced by the Society, its affiliates, and independent researchers. Many of these recordings originate from online events and fieldwork, covering topics from experimental archaeology to local history and major research projects, providing an accessible and engaging way to experience current work and discoveries across the county .

We invite individuals, local societies, researchers, and filmmakers to contribute video content to help expand this dynamic resource. Submissions may include recorded talks, site tours, project overviews, interviews, or documentary footage relating to Kent’s archaeology and history. Contributions hosted on platforms such as YouTube, or created as part of community, academic, or independent initiatives, are especially welcome, helping to share knowledge and interpretation with a wider audience.

Selected videos may be featured within the Society’s Videos section to support research, education, and public engagement. When submitting, please include details such as title, creator, date, a short description, and any relevant links or permissions. Our editorial team may make minor adjustments for clarity or presentation where needed. By contributing, you help build a rich and accessible visual record that captures both the practice and interpretation of archaeology and history in Kent.
