Object Of The Month - July 08
August 1, 2008 UncategorizedEach 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 8th August.
July’s candidates selected by LAARC volunteers are:
1) A silver Roman Coin dating from the reign of Vespasian from Lime St (LIM83)
2) A bone plaque depicting a griffin from Dunster Court (MCT88)
3) A biscuitware figurine of a potter from Hibernia Wharf (HIB79)
