Professor David Hinton
Emeritus Professor
Professor David Hinton is an Emeritus Professor of Archaeology at the University of Southampton.
I have continued to play an active role in the Department since my retirement. I began my career in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, where I was in charge of the medieval collections, before coming to Southampton to teach courses on the archaeology of the Middle Ages. I was involved in fieldwork in the Oxford area (collaborating at one time with Mick Aston, who went on to ‘Time Team' fame) and my projects while at Southampton have included work on various sites in Dorset, notably on the Purbeck peninsula, and elsewhere in the Wessex region.
I am currently the President of the Royal Archaeological Institute, and serve on various committees concerned with archaeology at national and local level.
