The symposium explores the rich and evolving identity of Devon’s people from the Palaeolithic era to today. Through archaeology, history and cultural studies we will examine how geography, migration, trade, and
socio-economic shifts shaped Devon’s distinct regional character. The event will highlight key transitions,
from early hunter-gatherers and Roman influences to medieval trade networks and the rise of tourism,
offering a cohesive narrative of Devon’s cultural legacy.
