Extract

During 1970 the City and County Museum, Lincoln, was fortunate in acquiring by purchase and by loan two interesting examples of metalwork from south Lincolnshire dating from the period of the Roman Conquest. The Whaplode terret is in the tradition of native Celtic metalwork, and the fluted patera handle from Dry Doddington is almost certainly an import from southern Italy. In both cases, however, these objects are likely to have been associated with the early Romanized population of the area (PL. XXIV).
