Taken at the Flood is AHRC project that supports UK and European academics to work with national curators and marine developers to provide the evidence we require both to understand and protect the exceptional archaeological resource contained within the North Sea, and to support the UK's national green energy strategy.
Along with directed fieldwork, it will utilise the extensive legacy data sets available in the southern North Sea, to test models that can determine where accessible prehistoric land surfaces exist across Doggerland, where settlement or activity areas may be located, and where targeted archaeological prospection may be carried out in advance of development.

At the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) we fund world-class, independent research in subjects from philosophy and the creative industries, to art conservation and product design.
Our research addresses some of society’s biggest challenges, such as tackling modern slavery, exploring the ethical implications of artificial intelligence, and understanding what it is to be human. See the full range of the research we fund on our remit, programmes and priorities page.
Our vision
Everything humans have ever thought, said, designed or performed falls into the remit of arts and humanities. We study what it is to be human, and the conditions that allow us to flourish or falter. All human history is in our scope, but so are the challenges of the present and the possibilities for the future.
AHRC is the UK’s largest provider of response-led and strategic funding, advanced skills training and career development across the whole range of arts and humanities.

The mission of the Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ) is clear: to strengthen science-based knowledge about our coasts, seas and the ocean and share it as widely as possible. That knowledge matters to everyone. The seas affect our lives. And we humans have an impact on the ocean, marine life and coasts. Just think about climate change, pollution and biodiversity loss.
Marine research can help in detecting changes, analysing problems and proposing solutions. To this end, the VLIZ uses new technologies, such as robotics, and focuses on innovation and valorisation. Research areas include the ocean and seas, coasts and tidal systems as well as all areas where Flemish marine scientists are or were active.
VLIZ conducts this research in an unfettered, neutral and open manner.
