A NEW interactive exhibition at Eastleigh Museum is aiming to bring visitors face to face with the past as they explore the life and death of the Anglo-Saxons.
The Invaders exhibition is billed as "family friendly".
Children can have fun dressing up to show which tribe they belonged to, decide what food Anglo-Saxons would have eaten and discover what it would have been like to row on the gruelling sea journey to Britain.
The exhibition also takes a look at what archaeology can tell us about tribal identity, ethnicity, status, gender, health and warfare, and how it all relates to today.
Visitors will be able to explore their Anglo-Saxon roots and the exhibition also looks at the sensitive question of the display and use of human remains in archaeology.
Invaders opens at Eastleigh Museum on Saturday, May 15 and will run until August 28.
