Every week our teams of archaeologists are uncovering interesting finds across the country. Whether it is an artefact or an ecofact, each piece of evidence helps us build a more detailed picture of the past. 

Join us in an exciting journey of discovery.

This large lead object is from the bottom of a ditch. Similar objects are used as cremation lids, although this is a little too large for that. Ideas anyone?

A large fragment of a flat lead circular object with curled edges sits ontop of a wooden desk with a measuring stick to the left showing it as approximately forty five centimeters in diameter.
