The Lanchester Roman Diploma

Found by a metal detectorist near Lanchester, Co. Durham, this is the first complete Roman Fleet Diploma to be discovered in the country and reveals the identity of one of Britain's first named sailors.

In the Roman Empire, there were citizens and non-citizens. Being a citizen gave you social and legal advantages. These included the right to own property, not pay some taxes and the right to have a lawful marriage. Most people in Britain at this time were not citizens. One way to become a citizen was to serve in the Roman army for 25 years, or the navy for 26 years. A diploma was the document that proved you had completed military service and could call yourself a Roman citizen.

The Lanchester Diploma was issued by the emperor Antoninus Pius (138-161 CE) to Veluotigernus, a Briton from Lanchester, County Durham, in around 150 CE. To earn his diploma, Veluotigernus had served in Classis Germanica, the Roman navy in Germany. We know his unit was based around Cologne, and that their main duties at this time were patrolling and logistics rather than combat.

It is unusual to be able to identify a local person from this period by name. Veluotigernus' British name ended with '-tigernus', which means 'king or 'master' This suggests that Veluotigernus was from a high-status local family. When he was honourably discharged from the navy, his name, according to the diploma became Titus Aelius Veluotigernus - illustrating that he, like many others, had embraced Roman culture. He is the second oldest known sailor in the country, and one of the few Britons we know to have served in the German fleet.

The diploma is made of a copper alloy. It consisted of two inscribed rectangular bronze plates,like pages in a book. The inside pages contained the complete text, whilst the outside had a shortened version, along with a list of seven witnesses. Each diploma was checked and then sealed to create a single document. It is very unusual to find a complete diploma.

Most diplomas were broken up, and the pieces passed to the recipient's children, allowing each of them to claim Roman citizenship. It is unclear what prompted Veluotigernus to bury the diploma rather than distributing the pieces amongst his close family.

Pueblo Bonito, in Chaco Canyon, was occupied from 828 and 1126 CE. It was the largest of the great houses in what may have been a ceremonial center.

love archaeology-posting with photos because then i get to see everyones sieving setups. Yours looks way more convenient than ours hahaha

Oooh then perhaps I can interest you in these pictures involving the wet screening setup at the dig I did in 2021...

Left: My service dog, Llywelyn, sits on the boardwalk behind the wet screening area. There is also a yellow (kitty litter) bucket full of yet to be screened dirt.

Center: My hand in the foreground, palm up, holding a deer tooth that was caught in the wet screening process. In the background is the mesh of the screen, covered with dirt and debris that have yet to be washed through.

Right: My hand in the foreground, palm up, holding a clap pipe stem. In the background is the boardwalk behind the wet screening area with a green hose lying across the boards.

And this one from 2022:

I'm so excited and so nervous for this job. Mostly excited though

And I'll be getting blocks of days off and get to just hang out and spend time around the area of the southern appalachians. There's so much I wanna do around there and I'm excited to get to do it

And I'll probably be doing a lot of it alone which I'm fine with. I'll get to get more used to just going and doing things by myself and taking my time.

Hello my lovely nerds,

This is a long shot as I am on the 'poor-person-web-site' and I know it. BUT, if you wouldn't mind having a look at this gofundme, for me to get back to school.

My depression and the pandemic hit me really hard. Back in 2019 it was my goal to be going back to school this year at the latest so I started saving at the time. If I Had been able to work full time since then as I assumed I would I would have more than enough to cover this - even with Ianto's added expenses. As it is, I am now in a worse spot than I was in early 2021 because I couldn't work and lived in a much more expensive place to recover my brain. It really did numbers on my savings... as in... I was a few weeks away from homelessness when I got the job in Camel Town.

I now have enough of a cushion that I won't be going without a roof anytime soon but no way enough to meet the UK's student visa requirements.

Right at the bottom of the text there is a video of me sight reading a passage, I am very happy to take 'commissions' for sight reading. Let me know what text you want read and I'll do it for 5 dollars - 10 if its more than a page lol.

In fact, if all of this blog's followers are real people and not bots, than 10 dollars from each of you will fill this right up to the top.

As always, I don't actually expect to make money off of tumblr, but if you could share/rebagle/forward this fundraiser to people I would love you for ever. I'm going to at a few big-names that I know of on here - or who feel like big names to me lol. No pressure to the tagged people. Just looking to spread the word.

I love how distinctly human that is!

Human 1: "Damn my intaglio/ring/pen/keys/phone fell down the drain!"

Human 2: "Didn't I tell you to not have it in your hand when visiting the bathhouse/walking near drains/flush the toilet!!!"

Human 3, working in the Lost and Found section: "No, sir, we can't look down the drain for you."

Stockpile of 2,000-year-old gemstones found in Roman bathhouse drain

Archaeologists recently uncovered a stockpile of 2,000-year-old glittering gemstones clogging the drain of a Roman bathhouse near Hadrian’s Wall in Carlisle, England.

The 30 engraved, semi-precious stones — known as intaglios — likely dropped out of the ring settings worn by bathers who took to the waters sometime during the second and third centuries A.D., The Guardian reported.

“It’s incredible,” Frank Giecco, the archaeologist who led the excavation, told The Guardian. “It’s caught everyone’s imagination. They were just falling out of people’s rings who were using the baths. They were set with a vegetable glue and, in the hot and sweaty bathhouse, they fell out of the ring settings.” Read more.

Hey, I am a undergraduate archeology student who is persuing archeology but also has Adhd and anxiety. Over the past couple years my anxiety has started to cause me to get migraines and get dizzy and other physical symptoms. I am looking into the potential of getting a service dog (a trained PSD) but was worried about how it would go with being an archeologist. Is it a good idea? Is it possible? I saw u have a service dog and wanted to ask. Any advice is appreciated.

Being an archaeologist (or other kind of historical professional—@rambling-museums) is totally possible. There are some things it does limit, like not being able to work in certain conditions because of your dog, but if your service dog is helping you live your life, the tradeoffs are absolutely worth it.

I've already written a post about having a service dog in the field, so check that out. See also: my #service dog handler and #disabled archaeologist tags.

Highland Heritage Day 2023: A Way Forward?

by Susan Kruse Did you know that there are around 100 heritage organisations and over 50 museums in the Highlands – and a number of community trusts and individuals who have heritage projects on the go? Few of us know what others are doing, and we rarely have a chance to meet up. ARCH has over the years tried to find out contact details, in part due to work organising the Highland Archaeology…
