Talk: The Snailman of Pontefract, and other recent discoveries

From the surreal ‘Snailman of Pontefract’ to Bronze Age axes and fake coins made by the Romans, find out about recent discoveries handed in to the British Museum’s Portable Antiquities Scheme.

The British Museum’s Portable Antiquities Scheme (PAS) has recorded over 1.4 million archaeological finds since it began – each one a unique discovery made by a member of the public.

This talk is part of the Festival of Archaeology. The talk is for adults aged 16+.

This event will take place in the Activity Zone at Pontefract Castle.
