A ROMAN pot, thought to be up to 2,000 years old, will go on to display to the public for the first time in September.
The artefact,
which new analysis shows was used to store dairy products, was found in a
pit with other objects during excavations for a garage in Highworth.
Lead “staples” on
one side of the storage jar, which is 2ft tall and 11/2 feet wide, show
where a break was fixed by its owners 1,700 years ago.
