"A rare knife handle in the shape of a gladiator found by divers in 1997 has been donated to English Heritage and will go on public display for the first time next year. The copper alloy figure was discovered near Corbridge Roman Town in Northumberland on Hadrian's Wall and is in pristine condition, preserved in the water of the River Tyne for 2,000 years. Originally the handle for a folding knife, it is only the second Roman gladiator knife handle to be found in England…" Main page link

Corbridge is a great place to visit, or at least it was 40 years ago. |
