Ancient Roman fingerprint found on jar


Recommended Posts

A fingerprint impression left more than 1,800 years ago has been found on a jar unearthed in a Lincolnshire field. The print was discovered on the inside a Roman pottery fragment after an amateur archaeologist stumbled across it.

 

Experts believe the impression is of an index finger and would have been made by the potter who crafted the item. The artefact was discovered in a field near Sleaford last month by metal detector user Tim Camm.
