This might suggest that the growing incidence in museums sidelining their local #archaeology collections is completely out of touch - 3,000 people travelled to a #Berkshire field to see a #Roman mosaic, in a single day! #RomanBritain #RomanArchaeology
Over 3,000 of you came to view the #Boxford2019 #Roman mosaic! It depicts Pelops attempting to win the hand of the Princess Hippodamia, via a deadly chariot race organised by her father, Oenomaus (who had received a prophecy that his son-in-law would kill him...) #Archaeology
