Site Event/Activity record ESF16120 - Excavation - Hoxne Context Project, Hoxne

An excavation of 1000sq m was undertaken on the site of a Roman hoard discovery. The primary purpose of the excavation was to identify any contexts associated with the late Roman hoard burial. The site of the 1992 excavation was redug to investigate more fully the features that were identifed during the works involved in the initial hoard recovery. The area was found to have been redug and disturbed, since backfilling by the archaeology unit, however, some componeents of the original hole could be recognised, though in a much pooerer condition.
