Britannia

Just had amazing feedback from @britishmuseum thank you. ‘Britannia were a real highlight of our event! They were professional, friendly and passionate and we received outstanding feedback from visitors. Couldn’t recommend them more highly! – Membership Events Manager,

We have just launched our new Web site, take a look and let us know what you think. durolitum.co.uk

Sadly, in the early hours of Tuesday 7 May, Ely Museum was broken into. Thieves stole the East Cambridgeshire gold torc and a gold bracelet, both dating from the Bronze Age. The police are currently investigating the theft. We will be closed to the public on Wednesday 8 May.

Just over 15 years ago we were asked to provide gladiators for a new children's programme called Horrible Histories. We knew then just how special that show was. We were fortunate to work on it for another 11 years in various guises. Happy 15th birthday #HorribleHistories

Here they are! Our new workshop series is available now! From bronze axe casting, flintknapping, amber carving and more there is a workshop to suit every archaeology lover's interests. Check out the workshops on the AncientCraft website: ancientcraft.co.uk/calendar

Our talented artist, @Sillicus was very busy @britishmuseum on Monday at the members event, painting a replica of the Dura Europos shield, using egg tempera and pigments known to the ancient world. We will of course update when Simon has completed the shield #romanarmy

@CarolineLawrenc @britishmuseum We were non stop talking with members it was a fantastic evening and exhibition is excellent.

Tunic (!), sandal-socks, sandals and scabbard; one of my fave cases at the new #Legionary exhibition at @britishmuseum … Spotted at Members’ Night this evening. 😊 (The tunic looks so different without a person in it! And without its belt!)

Very successful evening @britishmuseum members event for the Roman Legion, life in the Roman army exhibition. Fantastic to be part of it and chatting to so many people about kit used and life in the army. Thanks to all involved and all who came.

‘All Of Us Strangers’ see it as soon as you can. Try not to know anything about it before you go. It is a work of Art.

Dusted and polished our Kit to start our year off in a fabulous way at the fantastic @ElyMuseum great day and loved chatting to lots of lovely visitors #Romansarecoming #Ancientrome

We had an excellent weekend @EnglishHeritage Richborough Castle, depicting the start to the end of Roman rule in Brittania. Lovely to see so many people with a thirst for history #romans #romansreturn #Brittaniagateway @thehistoryguy

@EnglishHeritage really enjoyed Roman Returns to Richborough Roman Fort. Please do more often.

We are all set up for the Roman weekend at Richborough Castle. Fabulous @EnglishHeritage site and where British roman history began in AD 43 . Come along and see the early invaders and see a clash of late Romans at the end of Romes rule.

Remembering Rik Mayall, such a talent gone too early. We were fortunate to work with him on Black Adder back and forth, such a lovely man, RIP Rik #RikMayal

Obviously to honor our 33rd anniversary, DramaUK are showing the episode of New Tricks we worked on tonight at 10pm. #Newtricks @TracyAnnO
