Hear the story of Roman Kent and its wider importance in Roman Britain through the spectacular artefacts of the show. Simon and Richard will guide you through highlights, including the beautiful Plaxtol Minerva statue, a very high-quality child’s lead coffin complete with shroud remains, the Pudding Pan Rock Samian ware horde, sparkling ingots of Roman gold and silver, and magnificent tile made and stamped by the Classis Britannica regional fleet. Afterwards, we will retire to the KAS library for refreshments and a Q&A with Simon and Richard, finishing at 9pm.
