Roman Figurenes from Essex, Suffolk and Norfolk

Principal investigator: Liam
Level: Undergraduate

I am a third year archaeology student studying at Durham University. My dissertation concerns Roman figurines from Essex, Suffolk and Norfolk. I aim to assess the distribution of the figurines in my local area, as well as more detailed aspects such as the god/goddess, human or animal depicted. I will also be looking at fragmentation and the uses of the figurines in everyday life and ritual or religious contexts. A comparative report of the three counties and the territories of the local Iron age tribes will be another aspect of my research. I will have roughly 150-200 figurines for study, after further research from excavation reports. The data gained from the portable antiquities scheme will be used for this dissertation.
