Hotung Gallery Room 33 – China section of the gallery Room 95 – The Sir Percival David collection of Chinese ceramics The scope of the Department of Asia is extremely broad; its collections of over 75,000 objects cover the material culture of the whole Asian continent (from East, South, Central and South-East Asia) and from the Neolithic up to the present day. Until recently, this department concentrated on collecting Oriental antiquities from urban or semi-urban societies across the Asian continent. Many of those objects were collected by colonial officers and explorers in former parts of the British Empire, especially the Indian subcontinent. Examples include the collections made by individuals such as Charles Stuart, James Prinsep, Charles Masson, Sir Alexander Cunningham, Sir Harold Deane and Sir John Marshall. A large number of Chinese antiquities were purchased from the Anglo-Greek banker George Eumorfopoulos in the 1930s. In the second half of the twentieth century, the museum greatly benefited from the bequest of the philanthropist PT Brooke Sewell, which allowed the department to purchase many objects and fill in gaps in the collection.[71][72][73] In 2004, the ethnographic collections from Asia were transferred to the department. These reflect the diverse environment of the largest continent in the world and range from India to China, the Middle East to Japan. Much of the ethnographic material comes from objects originally owned by tribal cultures and hunter-gatherers, many of whose way of life has disappeared in the last century. Particularly valuable collections are from the Andaman and Nicobar Islands (much assembled by the British naval officer Maurice Portman), Sri Lanka, Northern Thailand, south-west China, the Ainu of Hokaidu in Japan (chief among them the collection of the Scottish zoologist John Anderson), Siberia and the islands of South-East Asia, especially Borneo. The latter benefited from the purchase in 1905 of the Sarawak collection put together by Dr Charles Hose, as well as from other colonial officers such as Edward A Jeffreys. In addition, a unique and valuable group of objects from Java, including shadow puppets and a gamelan musical set, was assembled by Sir Stamford Raffles. The principal gallery devoted to Asian art in the museum is Gallery 33 with its comprehensive display of Chinese, Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asian objects. An adjacent gallery showcases the Amaravati sculptures and monuments. Other galleries on the upper floors are devoted to its Japanese, Korean, painting and calligraphy, and Chinese ceramics collections. Key highlights of the collections include:[74] The most comprehensive collection of sculpture from the Indian subcontinent in the world, including the celebrated Buddhist limestone reliefs from Amaravati excavated by Sir Walter Elliot[75] An outstanding collection of Chinese antiquities, paintings, and porcelain, lacquer, bronze, jade, and other applied arts The most comprehensive collection of Japanese pre-20th century art in the Western world, many of which originally belonged to the surgeon William Anderson and diplomat Ernest Mason Satow East Asia A large collection of Chinese ritual bronzes, (from c. 1500 BC onwards) Huixian Bronze Hu, an identical pair of bronze vessels from the Eastern Zhou Period, China, (5th century BC) Japanese antiquities from the Kofun period excavated by the pioneering archaeologist William Gowland, (3rd–6th centuries AD) The famous Admonitions Scroll by Chinese artist Gu Kaizhi, (344–406 AD) The colossal Amitabha Buddha from Hancui, China, (585 AD) A set of ceramic Tang dynasty tomb figures of Liu Tingxun, (c.728 AD) Seated Luohan from Yixian, one from a set of eight surviving statues, China, (907–1125 AD) A fine assemblage of Buddhist paintings from Dunhuang, western China, collected by the British-Hungarian explorer Aurel Stein, (5th–11th centuries AD) Pericival David collection of Chinese ceramics, (10th–18th centuries AD) Ivory stand in the form of a seated lion, Chos-'khor-yan-rtse monastery in Tibet, (13th century AD) Pair of ceramic Kakiemon elephants from Japan, (17th century AD) Japanese prints including The Great Wave off Kanagawa, (1829–32) South Asia Excavated objects from the Indus Valley sites of Mohenjo-daro, and Harappa, Pakistan, (2500–2000 BC) Sandstone fragment of a Pillar of Ashoka with Brahmi inscription from Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, India, (238 BC) The Kulu Vase found near a monastery in Himachel Pradesh, one of the earliest examples of figurative art from the sub-continent, northern India, (1st century BC) Copper plate from Taxila, with important Kharoshthi inscription, Pakistan, (1st century BC – 1st century AD) Indo-Scythian sandstone Mathura Lion Capital and Bracket figure from one of the gateways to the Great Stupa at Sanchi, central India, (1st century AD) Bimaran Casket and Wardak Vase, reliquaries from ancient stupas in Afghanistan, (1st–2nd centuries AD) Relic deposits from the stupas at Manikyala, Ahin Posh, Sanchi and Gudivada, (1st–3rd centuries AD) Seated Buddha from Gandhara, and other Gandhara objects from Kafir Kot, Jamal Garhi and Takht-i-Bahi, Pakistan, (1st–3rd centuries AD) The Buddhapad Hoard of bronze images from southern India, (6th–8th centuries AD) Stone statue of Buddha from the Sultanganj hoard, Bihar, eastern India.

Over 350,000 objects[76] spanning thousands of years tells the history of mankind from three major continents and many rich and diverse cultures; the collecting of modern artefacts is ongoing. Many individuals have added to the department's collection over the years but those assembled by Henry Christy, Harry Beasley and William Oldman are outstanding. Objects from this department are mostly on display in several galleries on the ground and lower floors. Gallery 24 displays ethnographic from every continent while adjacent galleries focus on North America and Mexico. A long suite of rooms (Gallery 25) on the lower floor display African art. There are plans in place to develop permanent galleries for showcasing art from Oceania and South America. Africa Room 25 – African pots on display in the gallery The Sainsbury African Galleries display 600 objects from the greatest permanent collection of African arts and culture in the world. The three permanent galleries provide a substantial exhibition space for the Museum's African collection comprising over 200,000 objects. A curatorial scope that encompasses both archaeological and contemporary material, including both unique masterpieces of artistry and objects of everyday life. A great addition was material amassed by Sir Henry Wellcome, which was donated by the Wellcome Historical Medical Museum in 1954. Highlights of the African collection include objects found at megalithic circles in The Gambia, a dozen exquisite Afro-Portuguese ivories, a series of soapstone figures from the Kissi people in Sierra Leone and Liberia, Asante goldwork and regalia from Ghana including the Bowdich collection, the rare Akan Drum from the same region in west Africa, the Benin and Igbo-Ukwu bronze sculptures, the beautiful Bronze Head of Queen Idia, a magnificent brass head of a Yoruba ruler and quartz throne from Ife, a similar terracotta head from Iwinrin Grove near Ife, the Apapa Hoard from Lagos, southern Nigeria, an Ikom monolith from Cross River State, the Torday collection of central African sculpture, textiles and weaponry from the Kuba Kingdom including three royal figures, the unique Luzira Head from Uganda, processional crosses and other ecclesiastical and royal material from Gondar and Magdala, Ethiopia following the British Expedition to Abyssinia, excavated objects from Great Zimbabwe (that includes a unique soapstone, anthropomorphic figure) and satellite towns such as Mutare including a large hoard of Iron Age soapstone figures, a rare divining bowl from the Venda peoples and cave paintings and petroglyphs from South Africa. Oceania The British Museum's Oceanic collections originate from the vast area of the Pacific Ocean, stretching from Papua New Guinea to Easter Island, from New Zealand to Hawaii. The three main anthropological groups represented in the collection are Polynesia, Melanesia and Micronesia – Aboriginal art from Australia is considered separately in its own right. Metal working was not indigenous to Oceania before Europeans arrived, so many of the artefacts from the collection are made from stone, shell, bone and bamboo. Prehistoric objects from the region include a bird-shaped pestle and a group of stone mortars from Papua New Guinea. The British Museum is fortunate in having some of the earliest Oceanic and Pacific collections, many of which were put together by members of Cook's and Vancouver's expeditions or by colonial administrators such as Sir George Grey, Sir Frederick Broome and Arthur Gordon, before Western culture significantly impacted on indigenous cultures. The Wilson cabinet of curiosities from Palau is another example of pre-contact ware. The department has also benefited greatly from the legacy of pioneering anthropologists such as Bronislaw Malinowski and Katherine Routledge. In addition, the Maori collection is the finest outside New Zealand with many intricately carved wooden and jade objects and the Aboriginal art collection is distinguished by its wide range of bark paintings, including two very early bark etchings collected by John Hunter Kerr. A poignant artefact is the wooden shield found near Botany Bay during Cook's first voyage in 1770. A particularly important group of objects was purchased from the London Missionary Society in 1911, that includes the unique statue of A'a from Rurutu Island, the rare idol from the isle of Mangareva and the Cook Islands deity figure. Other highlights include the huge Hawaiian statue of Ku-ka-ili-moku or god of war (one of three extant in the world) and the famous Easter Island statues Hoa Hakananai'a and Moai Hava. Americas Room 27 – Huaxtec art on display in the Mexico Gallery The Americas collection mainly consists of 19th and 20th century items although the Paracas, Moche, Inca, Maya, Aztec, Taino and other early cultures are well represented. The Kayung totem pole, which was made in the late nineteenth century in the Queen Charlotte Islands, dominates the Great Court and provides a fitting introduction to this very wide ranging collection that stretches from the very north of the North American continent where the Inuit population has lived for centuries, to the tip of South America where indigenous tribes have long thrived in Patagonia. Highlights of the collection include First Nation objects from Alaska and Canada collected by the 5th Earl of Lonsdale and the Marquis of Lorne, the Squier and Davis collection of prehistoric mound relics from North America, a selection of pottery vessels found in cliff-dwellings at Mesa Verde, a collection of turquoise Aztec mosaics from Mexico (the largest in Europe), important artefacts from Teotihuacan and Isla de Sacrificios, several rare pre-Columbian manuscripts including the Codex Zouche-Nuttall and Codex Waecker-Gotter, a spectacular series of Mayan lintels from Yaxchilan excavated by the British Mayanist Alfred Maudslay, a very high quality Mayan collection that includes sculptures from Copan, Tikal, Tulum, Pusilha, Naranjo and Nebaj (including the celebrated Fenton Vase), a group of Zemi Figures from Vere, Jamaica, a number of prestigious pre-Columbian gold and votive objects from Colombia, ethnographic objects from across the Amazon region including the Schomburgk collection, two rare Tiwanaku pottery vessels from Lake Titicaca and important items from Tierra del Fuego donated by Commander Phillip Parker King.

The collection spans the entire history of coinage from its origins in the 7th century BC to the present day and is representative of both the East and West. As in other parts of the museum, the department has been able to expand its collection by purchase, donation and bequest. The department has benefited from the munificence of collectors such as Clayton Mordaunt Cracherode, Sarah Banks, Edward Hawkins, Sir Alexander Cunningham and George Bleazby. A significant strength of the collection are British coins from all ages, which have benefited from the ancient law of Treasure Trove. This has enabled the museum to purchase important hoards of gold and silver coins, many of which were buried during periods of crisis or upheaval. There are approximately 9,000 coins, medals and banknotes on display around the British Museum. More than half of these can be found in the Citi Money Gallery (Gallery 68), while the remainder form part of the permanent displays throughout the museum. Items from the full collection can be seen by the general public in the Study Room by appointment.[77] Gold coin of Croesus, Lydian, modern Turkey, c. 550 BC Knife money made from bronze, China, 4th-3rd centuries BC Tetradrachm of Lysimachos with the head of Alexander, Greece, about 305-281BC Tetradrachm issued by Ptolemy V, Greece, 204–181 BC 50 gold staters of Commius, Tincomarus and Eppillus, Alton, southern England, 1st century BC - 1st century AD Roman coins of Nero and Caligula found at Pudukottai, India, 1st century AD Coin of Trajan from Ahin Posh Buddhist monastery in Afghanistan, 2nd century AD Gold coin from Bactria, Afghanistan, 4th century AD Gold coin of Emperor Honorius from Hoxne Hoard, England, 4th-5th centuries AD Gold coin of Kumaragupta I, Gupta Empire, India, 415–455 AD Gold solidus of Wigmund, Archibishop of York, northern England, 837-854 AD Nasr II, Nishapur coin, central Asia, 921-922 AD Aethelred II gold mancu, England, 1003-1006 AD Chinese Ming banknote for 1 guan, China, 1375 AD Fishpool Hoard of mediaeval coins, northern England, late 15th century AD Renaissance medal of Desiderius Erasmus, by Quentin Massijs, Holland, 16th century AD Hoard comprising 78 Persian silver coins from Sharjah, United Arab Emirates, late 17th century AD 8 Reales silver coin minted in Potosí, Bolivia, 1770 AD Department of Conservation and Scientific Research[edit] This department was founded in 1920. Conservation has six specialist areas: ceramics & glass; metals; organic material (including textiles); stone, wall paintings and mosaics; Eastern pictorial art and Western pictorial art. The science department[78] has and continues to develop techniques to date artefacts, analyse and identify the materials used in their manufacture, to identify the place an artefact originated and the techniques used in their creation. The department also publishes its findings and discoveries. Libraries and Archives[edit] This department covers all levels of education, from casual visitors, schools, degree level and beyond. The Museum's various libraries hold in excess of 350,000 books, journals and pamphlets covering all areas of the museum's collection. Also the general Museum archives which date from its foundation in 1753 are overseen by this department; the individual departments have their own separate archives and libraries covering their various areas of responsibility, which can be consulted by the public on application. The Anthropology Library is especially large, with 120,000 volumes.[79] However, the Paul Hamlyn Library, which had become the central reference library of the British Museum and the only library there freely open to the general public, closed permanently in August 2011.[80] The website and online database of the collection also provide increasing amounts of information. British Museum Press[edit] The British Museum Press (BMP) is the publishing business and a division of the British Museum Company Ltd, a company and a charity (established in 1973) wholly owned by the Trustees of the British Museum.[81] The BMP publishes both popular and scholarly illustrated books to accompany the exhibition programme and explore aspects of the general collection. Profits from their sales goes to support the British Museum.[81] Scholarly titles are published in the Research Publications series, all of which are peer-reviewed. This series was started in 1978 and was originally called Occasional Papers. The series is designed to disseminate research on items in the collection. Between six and eight titles are published each year in this series.[82] Controversy[edit] A few of the Elgin Marbles (also known as the Parthenon Marbles) from the East Pediment of the Parthenon. It is a point of controversy whether museums should be allowed to possess artefacts taken from other countries, and the British Museum is a notable target for criticism. The Elgin Marbles, Benin Bronzes and the Rosetta Stone are among the most disputed objects in its collections, and organisations have been formed demanding the return of these artefacts to their native countries of Greece, Nigeria and Egypt respectively. Parthenon Marbles claimed by Greece were also claimed by UNESCO among others for restitution. From 1801 to 1812, Elgin's agents took about half of the surviving sculptures of the Parthenon, as well as sculptures from the Propylaea and Erechtheum. The British Museum has refused to return these artefacts, stating that the "restitutionist premise, that whatever was made in a country must return to an original geographical site, would empty both the British Museum and the other great museums of the world".[83] The Museum has also argued that the British Museum Act of 1963 legally prevents any object from leaving its collection once it has entered it. Nevertheless, it has returned items such as the Tasmanian Ashes after a 20-year-long battle with Australia.[84] The British Museum continues to assert that it is an appropriate custodian and has an inalienable right to its disputed artefacts under British law.

In 15-minute presentations broadcast on weekdays on Radio 4, MacGregor used objects of ancient art, industry, technology and arms, all of which are in the British Museum's collections, as an introduction to parts of human history. The series, four years in planning, began on 18 January 2010 and was broadcast over 20 weeks.[1] A book to accompany the series, A History of the World in 100 Objects by Neil MacGregor, was published by Allen Lane on 28 October 2010.[2] The entire series is also available for download along with an audio version of the book for purchase. The British Museum won the 2011 Art Fund Prize for its role in hosting the project.

The programme series, described as "a landmark project",[3] is billed as 'A history of humanity' told through a hundred objects from all over the world in the British Museum's collection. In these programmes, I'm travelling back in time, and across the globe, to see how we humans over 2 million years have shaped our world and been shaped by it, and I'm going to tell this story exclusively through the things that humans have made: all sorts of things, carefully designed, and then either admired and preserved, or used, broken and thrown away. I've chosen just a hundred objects from different points on our journey, from a cooking pot to a golden galleon, from a Stone Age tool to a credit card.[4] Telling history through things, whether it's an Egyptian mummy or a credit card, is what museums are for, and because the British Museum has collected things from all over the globe, it's not a bad place to try to tell a world history. Of course, it can only be "a" history of the world, not "the" history. When people come to the museum they choose their own objects and make their own journey round the world and through time, but I think what they will find is that their own histories quickly intersect with everybody elses, and when that happens, you no longer have a history of a particular people or nation, but a story of endless connections.[5] Accompanying the series is a website, described by The Guardian as "even more ambitious [than the radio series itself] that encourages users to submit items of their own for a place in world history", along with much interactive content, detailed information on all the objects featured in the radio programmes and links to 350 other museum collections across the UK.[6] The radio programmes will be available on the website permanently for listening or downloading. The museum has adapted exhibitions for the series by including additional easily identifiable plaques for the 100 objects with text based on the programme and adding a section to the gallery maps showing the location and numbers of the 100 objects. On 18 January 2010, an hour-long special of The Culture Show on BBC2 was dedicated to the launch of the project.[7] The first part of the series was broadcast on weekdays over six weeks between 18 January and 26 February 2010. After a short break, the series returned with the seventh week being broadcast in the week beginning 17 May 2010.[8] It then took another break in the middle of July and returned on 13 September 2010, running til the 100th object was featured on Friday 22 October 2010. Reception[edit] Maev Kennedy of The Guardian described the programme as "a broadcasting phenomenon", while Tim Davie, head of music and audio at BBC radio, commented that "the results have been nothing short of stunning", exceeding the BBC's wildest hopes for the programme. At the time of the writing of Kennedy's article, just before the start of the last week of the series, the radio broadcasts regularly had up to four million listeners, while the podcast downloads had totalled 10,441,884. Of these, just over half, 5.7 million, were from the UK. In addition, members of the public had uploaded 3,240 objects with the largest single contribution coming from Glasgow historian Robert Pool who submitted 120 objects all relating to the City of Glasgow, and other museums a further 1,610, and 531 museums and heritage sites across the UK had been mounting linked events – an unprecedented partnership, MacGregor said. Museums all over the world are now copying the formula, as thousands of visitors every day set out to explore the British Museum galleries equipped with the leaflet mapping the objects.[9] Writing in The Independent, Philip Hensher described the series as "perfect radio", saying "Has there ever been a more exciting, more unfailingly interesting radio series than the Radio 4/British Museum venture, A History of the World in 100 Objects? It is such a beautifully simple idea, to trace human civilisations through the objects that happen to have survived. Each programme, just 15 minutes long, focuses on just one thing, quite patiently, without dawdling. At the end, you feel that you have learnt something, and learnt it with pleasure and interest. For years to come, the BBC will be able to point to this wonderful series as an example of the things that it does best. It fulfils, to a degree that one thought hardly possible any more, the BBC's Reithian agenda of improvement and the propagation of learning and culture."[10] Masayoshi Ohira ?? ??

Since the PAS was set up in 1997, some 800,000 objects have been registered with the scheme, many of them discovered by amateur metal detectorists.[4] The fifty finds have been selected by Hughes and a panel of experts from the British Museum (Roger Bland, Michael Lewis, Sally Worrell and Ian Richardson) and the Council for British Archaeology (Mike Heyworth) from among the nearly one million finds reported to the PAS on the basis of their historical and cultural significance, as well as on their aesthetic merit.[5] The six episodes of Britain's Secret Treasures present the fifty objects in reverse order according to their importance as judged by the panel, in a countdown format, with the ten most important objects revealed during the sixth and final episode.[4][6] Taking the top slot in the countdown, as the most important object according to the panel, is a Lower Paleolithic flint handaxe made more than half a million years ago that was found on a beach in Happisburgh, Norfolk in 2000 by a man taking his dog for a walk.[7] Contents [hide] 1 Episodes 1.1 Series 1 1.2 Series 2 2 List of objects 3 Objects submitted by viewers 4 See also 5 References 6 External links Episodes[edit] Series 1[edit] Episode Air Date Contributors Objects 1 16 July 2012 John McCarthy Saul David 45–50[8] 2 17 July 2012 Michael Portillo Nicky Clarke Mary Ann Ochota Claire Barratt 38–44[9] 3 18 July 2012 Michael Portillo John McCarthy John Sergeant 27–37[10] 4 19 July 2012 Dave Crisp (finder of the Frome Hoard) Brian Blessed Mary Ann Ochota Gethin Jones 19–26[11] 5 20 July 2012 Dan Lobb Mary Ann Ochota Anita Rani Jon Culshaw 11–18[12] 6 22 July 2012 William Roache Michael Portillo 1–10[13] Series 2[edit] Episode Air Date Contributors Objects 1 17 October 2013[14] Mary Ann Ochota James Purefoy 2 24 October 2013 Jim Moir Tom Holland Tanni Grey-Thompson 3 31 October 2013 Russell Grant Tony Baker Thomas Littleton[disambiguation needed] Suzannah Lipscomb 4 7 November 2013 5 14 November 2013 John Prescott Mary Ann Ochota Suzannah Lipscomb 6 21 November 2013 Mariella Frostrup Ekow Eshun Suzannah Lipscomb 7 28 November 2013 8 5 December 2013 Katherine Jenkins Mary Ann Ochota List of objects[edit] Number Image Object Date Where Found When Found PAS Record 1 Happisburgh handaxe.jpg Happisburgh Handaxe 800,000 – 600,000 BC Happisburgh, Norfolk 2000 NMS-ECAA52 2 RinglemereCup-BritishMuseum-20070829.jpg Ringlemere Gold Cup 1700–1500 BC Ringlemere barrow, Kent 2001 PAS-BE40C2 3 Staffordshire hoard annotated.jpg Staffordshire Hoard 550–650 Hammerwich, Staffordshire 2009 WMID-0B5416 4 Fig 373 hoard.jpg Chalgrove Hoard 251–279 Chalgrove, Oxfordshire 2003 PAS-879F02 5 Boar Badge of Richard III from Bosworth Field.jpg Boar Badge of Richard III 1470–1485 Sheepy, Leicestershire 2009 LEIC-A6C834 6 Hallaton hoard.jpg Hallaton Hoard c. 400 Hallaton, Leicestershire 2000 PAS-984616 7 Staffordshire Moorlands Pan (1284837406).jpg Staffordshire Moorlands Pan 100–199 Staffordshire Moorlands, Staffordshire 2003 WMID-3FE965 8 Baldehilde seal from ring B.jpg Baldehilde Seal 600–700 Broadland, Norfolk 1999 PAS-8709C3 9 Crosby Garret Helmet at Sale.jpg Crosby Garrett Helmet 75–250 Crosby Garrett, Cumbria 2010 LANCUM-E48D73 10 Coins bullion york hoard.JPG Vale of York Hoard c. 928 Harrogate, North Yorkshire 2007 SWYOR-AECB53 11 Near Lewes Hoard.jpg Near Lewes Hoard 1500–1100 BC Lewes, East Sussex 2011 SUSS-C5D042 12 Stirling HoardDSCF6395.jpg Blair Drummond Hoard 300–100 BC Blair Drummond, Stirlingshire 2009 N/A 13 North West Essex ring.jpg North West Essex Ring 580–650 Uttlesford, Essex 2011 ESS-E396B1 14 Baldock Hoard3.jpg Ashwell Hoard 250–350 Baldock, Hertfordhire 2002 PAS-9708E3 15 Winchester Hoard.jpg Winchester Hoard c. 100 BC Winchester, Hampshire 2000 PAS-845331 16 Carlton knight.jpg Carlton-in-Lindrick knight 1150–1250 Bassetlaw, Nottinghamshire 2004 SWYOR-D37EE5 17 Seal Matrix of Stone Priory.jpg Seal Matrix of Stone Priory 1200–1300 Weybridge, Surrey 2011 SUR-B74173 18 Silverdale Hoard group shot.jpg Silverdale Hoard 900–910 Silverdale, Lancashire 2011 LANCUM-65C1B4 19 Monmouthshire Leopard cup 2.jpg Leopard Cup 1–99 Llantilio Pertholey, Monmouthshire 2002 NMGW-9A9D16 20 Tisbury Hoard.jpg Tisbury Hoard 800–600 BC Tisbury, Wiltshire 2011 WILT-E8DA70 21 Saltfleetby spindle whorl.jpg Saltfleetby Spindle Whorl 1000–1100 Saltfleetby, Lincolnshire 2010 LIN-D92A22 22 MiltonKeynesHoard.JPG Milton Keynes Hoard 1150–750 BC Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire 2000 PAS-833958 23 Nether Stowey Hoard.jpg Nether Stowey Hoard c. 1633 Nether Stowey, Somerset 2008 SOM-849CA3 24 Bust of Marcus Aurelius.jpg Marcus Aurelius Bust 100–200 Brackley, Northamptonshire 1976 BERK-E24C84 25 Frome Hoard pile of coins.jpg Frome Hoard c. 293 Frome, Somerset 2009 SOM-5B9453 26 River Stour pilgrim's badge.jpg River Stour Pilgrims' Badges 1300–1500 Canterbury, Kent ?
