Goodness, they could be a pair!! 😍 stunning, thanks for sharing

Wow, a small Roman glass bottle with preserved ointment from almost 2,000 years ago! 🤩

The ointment is composed of fatty acids, glycerine, and plant fibres (wood, pollen, and seeds). Perhaps a valuable cosmetic or medicinal cream.

This is so perfect 😂 #InternationalArchaeologyDay

For #FindsFriday just a few of the fabulous Viking age beads discovered at Haithabu/ Hedeby - 📷 Schloss Gottorf Museum.

This week on #findsfriday we have a post medieval silver finger-ring found in Heytesbury in 2015.

A simple four-petalled gilded flower covers the joint in the band, now partially damaged. The hoop has raised edges and between them is a gilded strip with a series of pellets running down through it.

A beautiful barbed and tanged arrowhead from the Early Bronze Age, produced on translucent, amber-coloured flint.

Found in Church Broughton, now in Derby Museum

I certainly can, apologies for the oversight there!

A real tangible link to the past. You can just imagine the last person holding it before they dropped it between the cobbles

Hi BlueSky! Jumping in with my first post to play #findsfriday and this lovely little spindle whorl found during excavations at Caerfai promontory fort in 2022. 📸 my own from the Cherish project with DigVentures
