A talk by Kurt Adams, Portable Antiquities Scheme

Three of the most important hoards found Gloucestershire, ranging from a hoard of scrap metalwork that contained a spectacular dog figurine, a hoard of coin clippings and a collection of pots containing coins will be discussed. What did the hoards contain? Why and when were they buried? Who buried them?
