Only the British Museum would have the utter cheek to host an exhibition of items stolen from themselves.
Their complete incompetence on display for everyone to see.
Quite a way to go before they get the hundreds of other items stolen, if ever.

Re: Council won’t pay for brooch
The joke of it is that this piece is, in my opinion undervalued as it is.

Re: Lincs bans detectors on beaches without permission
Let’s be honest here, do we really think that the council are going to hand out permissions? I can’t see it myself.
It’s a ban by any other name.

Re: Virgin Mary gold pendant
Something of that significance historically is what drives me.
An item of such beauty and importance… The one that gets me is the Alfred Jewel which resides in the Ashmolean Museum In Oxford.
Well worth gazing at if you are ever up this way!

Re: Virgin Mary gold pendant
So, as I read it… wound to the heart, hands and feet.
That makes sense.
What a find!
There must be similar ones out there still to be found.
