About

Professor Tony Pollard has directed battlefield and conflict related archaeological projects in the UK, Europe, Africa and South America. His interests range from 18th century warfare, particularly in relation to the Jacobite wars in Scotland, to the cultural heritage of the Falklands War (he is co-director of the Falklands War Mapping Project). On behalf of the Australian Army, he led the survey and evaluation of the First World War mass graves of Australian troops at Fromelles, in France.

Tony has co-founded The Journal of Conflict Archaeology, has written extensively for academic and popular audiences, and appeared in various television documentaries.
