A Lyle & Sons golden syrup tin! And it's almost identical to those we see today. Alongside other finds from site, it inspired window etchings, displays & learning at the new St Michael's School in Larkhill, creating a sense of place #archivecalendar @welovebaking @SP_Academies pic.twitter.com/tPs1…

#ArchiveCalendar Box 13 is a beauty! Gorgeous pieces of #BronzeAge 'Trevisker Ware', recovered from a recent #Exeter site, most likely used for storage and cooking. A charred bean in one vessel provided a radiocarbon date of 1625-1465 cal BC! #Exeter #BronzeAge #Archaeology pic.twitter.com/Weic…

#ArchiveCalendar Day 12, and this is exactly what it looked like when we found it guv'nor... Large metallurgical residue from iron smelting (shaped like a #gingerbread man).
