Scriveners, Priests, Feasts…and Huge Quantities of Objects – Medieval and Later Finds from Chester Amphitheatre

Linked to the Grosvenor Museum’s exhibition ‘Chester Amphitheatre – an 8000 year story’, join the museum’s Archaeological Officer for a talk on medieval and later finds from the 2004-6 excavations at the Amphitheatre. The site of Chester Amphitheatre is well known for its Roman gladiators but who was using the site when the combats had ceased? This talk looks at some of the great variety of objects found in the excavations and the people who might have used them.
