Object of the Month - June 08

Uncategorized

Each month LAARC runs an Object Of The Month competition. Three artefacts are taken from the archive’s stores and put up for public vote to decide which goes on display in the Archive’s temporary exhibition case.

Competitions take place during the final week of each month. The winning object for this month will be announced on Friday 4th July.

June’s candidates selected by LAARC volunteers are:

1) A Roman Flagon from Moorgate (MOG86)

2) A Tin-Glazed Plate from the Fleet Valley project (VAL88)

3) An antler figurine from Guildhall Yard (GYE92)

    I know which one I’m going to vote for!

    Have you thought about linking to a map showing where these objects are? And maybe to the LAARC’s entries for those sites?

    cheers, Mia
