Today, we’re excited to share a glimpse into Roman Winchester’s southern cemetery, where recent work has revealed an intriguing burial assemblage. The black vessel held a cremation and it was found with two bow brooches and two Samian dishes — one of which served as a protective lid over the cremation. This site has also revealed several inhumations. Though the cemetery along the Roman road is relatively well-known, each find continues to add new insights into burial customs and personal belongings of the time. #FindsFriday
