Enjoying the company of a carnyx at #CastellHenllys.
If you are in #Carmarthen next weekend, coming along to the county museum to support a #PortableAntiquitiesScheme roadshow event exploring #archaeology and #metaldetecting in the region - this event will feed into an exhibition on these themes, to be hosted at the museum in early 2024.
Nina WillburgerFascinating world of ancient #glass: this absolutely stunning #Roman ribbed bowl was unearthed fully intact with little to no wear during excavations in Nijmegen, The Netherlands.
Monochrome ribbed bowls made of brightly coloured glass were very popular throughout...the Roman empire in the 1st century AD.
They were also exported beyond the empire’s eastern frontier and have been found in Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India.
It's been a fun #archaeology day in #Bangor. Of the less likely things to turn up, this aircraft propeller was definitely one of them!
Getting set up for a Finds Surgery in #Bangor today.
