GUARD Archaeology hosted an Open Day at their Glasgow office today, providing visitors with a chance to see some of the best of the artefacts – the E-Ware and Samian Ware pottery sherds, the disc brooch, the clay moulds, one of the crucibles, the socketed tool, the spindle whorl, the Iron Age glass bead and the boar’s tusk – recovered from the Trusty’s Hill excavation, as well as the numerous other finds recovered from recent excavations across Scotland. Nine people in all came to visit our office, which perhaps doesn’t sound very much but they all spent a good while at each of our displays and seemed very interested in what we had to say!
