Discovery of relief of Roman goddess of victory in Vindolanda
In May 2025, a pair of volunteers discovered a relief of the winged Roman goddess of victory, Victoria, at Vindolanda, a Roman fort in northern England. The 47 cm high relief was found in the rubble of a former infantry barracks and is dated to the early 3rd century CE.
The relief will go on public display at the Vindolanda Museum in early 2026 as part of an exhibition of the latest finds.
