Romans & Saxons
The Roman collections reflect the rural nature of south Wiltshire and include finds from villas and farms. From the Anglo-Saxon period there is a remarkable array of grave goods from cemeteries found locally. The Warminster Jewel, an Anglo-Saxon manuscript pointer, is one of the Museum’s greatest treasures.
