Preliminary assessment of excavated artefacts.

  


 

The quantity and diversity of artefacts from the site demand expert assessment before they can be accurately recorded and displayed.

 

Artefacts

Pottery sherds form the largest category. These are being identified by Dr David Barker, whose expertise has enabled us to develop a type series database, which is now available as a reference collection.
