Looks like a great exhibition but, please can we all stop calling artefacts "treasure"? It unhelpfully prioritizes financial value over historic value. Thanks.

Watch this immediately. It includes exciting new results from the Palace (from 15 mins) and a shockingly embarrassing picture of #CuratorRob (around 21 mins).

If you've ever wondered what the point of archaeology is, this is the answer.

#WorldHippoDay, you say? Bet you're expecting us to post a pic of a hippo.

WRONG!

It's a hippoSANDAL - a Roman horseshoe. Found at the Palace and proof, if any was needed, that the Romans were bonkers.

For #WorldHippoDay an #Egyptian carving of a Hippo, made 5.000 years ago from calcite.
Hippopotami were regarded as very dangerous animals, but they were also associated with life, regeneration, and rebirth
