30,000 finds in Lincolnshire

In northern Lincolnshire (England), scientists discovered nearly 30,000 different objects and finds from different historical periods. Among them are ceramics from the Bronze Age and a Roman burial.

The excavations are part of a project to build the world’s largest wind farm. The discoveries will be at the Scunthorpe Museum. Among others, the following were dug out of the ground:

  • oyster shells that were arguably extremely popular in Tetney’s Roman times.
  • ceramics from the Bronze Age
  • traces of a Roman-British center
  • remains of 2 medieval salt processing sites
  • items made of bone or metal (including coins, brooches, knives, nails)
  • two burial sites (medieval and roman)
