Viggen Posted July 23, 2003 Report Share Posted July 23, 2003 Archaeologists found the ancient fragment of glass on the site of a villa nearNether Heyford last week and it was displayed to the public for the first time at the weekend. "Carved Roman glass like this is not a common find. It would have been very expensive and it's a very special piece. It gives us a clear idea of the status the villa had." The carved glass was found in the bath house of the Roman Villa, which was discovered in a field near Nether Heyford four years ago. Other finds at the site have included more than 300 Roman coins, pottery, jewellery and animal bones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viggen Posted July 25, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2003 my guess would be very rich aristocrats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
