项目摘要

This project follows-on from 'The Glastonbury Abbey Archaeological Archive Project' (University of Reading/ Glastonbury Abbey, 2009-13). AHRC funding enabled the full analysis of previously unpublished excavations at this site of international historical importance. Glastonbury Abbey was renowned in the middle ages as the reputed burial place of the legendary King Arthur and the site of the earliest Christian church in Britain, believed to have been founded by Joseph of Arimathea in the first century. It became a major pilgrimage centre and was the second richest monastery in England at the Dissolution. Today, Glastonbury Abbey is a heritage centre and museum that draws a large range of visitors including tourists, educational groups and spiritual seekers of diverse beliefs.From 1904 to 1979, 36 seasons of excavations took place at the Abbey but the results were never published. Critical study of the archive of antiquarian excavations and the archaeological collections has unlocked new evidence for the scale and significance of the Anglo-Saxon monastery and the medieval Abbey. The outputs of the original research project are aimed at the academic audience, including a monograph in press with the Society of Antiquaries and an online database archived with the Archaeology Data Service. The Follow-on project will make the results of the research available to new audiences, including visitors to Glastonbury Abbey (numbering approximately 100,000 per annum), the local community of Glastonbury and the wider public. Partnership between the University of Reading and the Trustees of Glastonbury Abbey will enable the charity to improve the quality of site interpretation and education offered to visitors. Interpretation of the ruins and museum collections will be informed by new academic research and presented in more creative and accessible formats including digital reconstructions. The approach is particularly novel in using archaeological evidence to explore the local legends of King Arthur and Joseph of Arimathea. These stories have been connected with Glastonbury for nearly a thousand years: they have both popular appeal and spiritual value to groups including the Church of England, the Catholic Church and the New Age 'Community of Avalon'.Visitor experience will be enriched by the development of digital reconstructions and an interactive map that will enhance understanding of spatial layout, chronological development and archaeological evidence. The reconstructions will present challenging evidence in an accessible way that will appeal particularly to younger visitors, through iPad tours delivered by a Living History team, and family packs and trails. For the first time, an official guidebook will present a summary of the most recent research on Glastonbury, available in 5 languages to meet the needs of international visitors. There will be greater variety of visitor experience and new opportunities to engage with evidence at different levels of detail in a layered approach to interpretation. A launch event will inform the local community; social media and a popular magazine article will inform the remote public of new research findings. The educational value of school visits will be enhanced by improving the quality of learning resources and introducing a critical perspective to evidence. Teachers will benefit from the development of accessible resources and lesson plans for the study of Glastonbury Abbey that map directly on to the new curricula for Key Stages 1-3.The project will deliver sustainable resources that will continue to enrich the experience of visitors to Glastonbury Abbey beyond the life of the project. Knowledge Transfer workshops will enhance the effectiveness of the resources and the quality of their implementation. Workshops with educational and spiritual stakeholders will inform future development at Glastonbury Abbey, including a planned HLF bid for a new museum and learning centre.

该项目是“格拉斯顿伯里修道院考古档案项目”（阅读大学/格拉斯顿伯里修道院，2009-13）的后续项目。澳大利亚人权委员会的资助使人们能够对这一具有国际历史重要性的遗址以前未公布的挖掘进行全面分析。格拉斯顿伯里修道院在中世纪因传说中的国王亚瑟的埋葬地和英国最早的基督教教堂的遗址而闻名，据信是由亚利马太的约瑟夫在第一世纪建立的。它成为一个主要的朝圣中心，也是解散时期英格兰第二富有的修道院。如今，格拉斯顿伯里修道院是一个文化遗产中心和博物馆，吸引了大量的游客，包括游客，教育团体和不同信仰的精神追求者。从1904年到1979年，在修道院进行了36个季节的挖掘，但结果从未公布。对考古发掘档案和考古收藏品的批判性研究为盎格鲁-撒克逊修道院和中世纪修道院的规模和意义提供了新的证据。原始研究项目的成果面向学术界，包括一本由古物学会出版的专著和一个由考古数据服务处存档的在线数据库。后续项目将向新的受众提供研究结果，包括格拉斯顿伯里修道院的游客（每年约10万人）、格拉斯顿伯里当地社区和更广泛的公众。阅读大学和格拉斯顿伯里修道院受托人之间的合作伙伴关系将使该慈善机构能够提高向游客提供的现场解释和教育的质量。对遗址和博物馆藏品的解读将以新的学术研究为基础，并以更具创造性和可访问性的格式呈现，包括数字重建。这种方法在利用考古证据探索当地关于亚瑟和亚利马太的约瑟夫的传说方面特别新颖。这些故事与格拉斯顿伯里有着近千年的联系：它们对包括英国教会、天主教会和新时代“阿瓦隆社区”在内的团体既有大众的吸引力，又有精神价值。数字重建和互动地图的发展将丰富游客的体验，这将增强对空间布局、时间发展和考古证据的理解。这些重建将以一种易于理解的方式呈现具有挑战性的证据，特别吸引年轻游客，通过由Living History团队提供的iPad图尔斯之旅，以及家庭包和小径。官方指南将首次以5种语言提供对格拉斯顿伯里最新研究的总结，以满足国际游客的需求。将有更多的游客体验和新的机会，在不同层次的细节参与证据的分层解释方法。启动活动将告知当地社区;社交媒体和流行杂志文章将告知偏远地区的公众新的研究结果。将通过提高学习资源的质量和引入对证据的批判性观点来提高学校访问的教育价值。教师将从格拉斯顿伯里修道院研究的可访问资源和课程计划的开发中受益，这些资源和课程计划直接映射到关键阶段1- 3的新课程。该项目将提供可持续的资源，这些资源将继续丰富格拉斯顿伯里修道院游客的体验。知识转让讲习班将提高资源的有效性及其执行质量。与教育和精神利益相关者的研讨会将为格拉斯顿伯里修道院的未来发展提供信息，包括计划中的HLF申办新的博物馆和学习中心。
