Thanks to the diligent work of @YMT_Adam you can read about the Heslington Hoard on @wikipedia (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heslin…). It has been documented by a brilliant team of volunteers from @FFHYork over the past 2 years, aided by @YMT_YorkRomans. Some excellent coins in it!

Lots of exciting projects presented at the @YorkMuseumTrust @labsofdc @UofGArchaeo hackathon. Including a sound-based knocking on pipes mobile game, AR floating heads, a ghostly projection, & reconfiguring museum entrance with an event to experience life as a prisoner! Phew!
