Carenza Rachel Lewis FSA FHEA FRSA (born 30 November 1963) is a British academic archaeologist and television presenter. Lewis received her formal education at the school of the Church of England Community of All Hallows, in Suffolk. She studied archaeology and anthropology at Girton College, Cambridge.
In the early 1990s she joined the team presenting the Time Team series, a new television programme designed to make archaeology accessible for the general public, which was first broadcast on Channel 4 Television in 1994. She appeared on the show from 1993 to 2005, appearing each season from the first through the twelfth. The ratings success of the Time Team series led to further television presenting commissions for Lewis, including the series House Detectives (1997–2002).
In 2000, Lewis presented an episode of the BBC's theoretical history programme entitled What If, where she examined the failed revolt of Queen Boudicca and the Iceni against the Roman Empire in AD 60. She also devised and presented a series called Sacred Sites for HTV.
In 2010, she appeared in the television series Michael Wood's Story of England.
In 2022, she rejoined the Time Team crew for its Youtube revival.
