Archaeology

Our archaeology collection covers all of human history from the very first people in Bucks, around 500,000 years ago up to 1500 AD (more modern items are in the Social History collection). These objects tell the stories of the people who lived here before us – how they lived, what they loved and what they believed. Ranging from beautifully made early stone and bronze tools, through Roman coins, Saxon & Viking weapons, to exquisite medieval jewellery, these objects give us glimpses into their lives.
