A Case of Identity: Making Faces, with Dr Caroline Wilkinson (Facial Anthropologist, centre for Human Identification, University of Dundee)

Join us to learn about the techniques used by Dr Caroline Wilkinson at our special Skull identification evening, and then put your knowledge to the test with a skull detectives trail and quiz.
