does anyone know a bit more about the finds? what they've shown so far isn't really "special" or anything (not that I expected a sensation). They said something about 600 pieces. Arrowheads and ballista bolts are the usual en massè battlefield finds. I'm surprised by only 2 coins (would have expected many more). a helmte or sword would be great :wink:

maybe the Romans DID quickly clean the battlefield? main equipment seems to be missing (body armour, swords, helmets, shieldbosses) and no dead anywhere as of yet, right?
