#FindsFriday #BehindTheScenes🏺
How do we stage broken #ceramics for photographic #reconstruction?
With painter’s tape, we hold the #sherds together just long enough to take a photo. 📸 Residue is then cleaned off with ethanol—so the pottery isn't glued.
This pot was found during an #excavation in Lower #Austria! Thrown on a potter's wheel, its characteristics suggest it's from the late 13th to early 15th century!

#FindsFriday 🐲 On an excavation in Fischamend Dorf near St. Stephan Cemetery, #SilverPfennigs from the High & Late #MiddleAges were found!🪙 Some stuck together, making them tricky to separate - though it is possible to make out lively motifs of dragons, panthers, eagles, roosters, winged lions & griffins!🦁

During an excavation in #LowerAustria, we discovered #cat bones, among other things, which #archaeozoologist #KarlKunst from the @univienna took a closer look at:
In contrast to other animal bones, they showed no traces of chopping or cutting.
So what were the cats doing? #Mouse hunters? #Pets? Or simply part of everyday life between the #MiddleAge and modern times? An exciting insight into the coexistence of #humans and #animals centuries ago

For #findsfriday we have various #potterymarks from the late #middleages
These exciting pottery fragments, which show a wide variety of potter's marks and #stamps, were discovered during one of our #excavations in 2023. They are mainly applied to the rims of grey #earthenware pots and can provide clues as to the #manufacturer of the #vessels
The #pottery marks are incised X-shaped, V-shaped, cross-shaped, crest-shaped or with parallel notches.

For #findsfriday we have a #medieval #wheelspur from an excavation of a medieval deserted settlement in the #Matzen region. This wheel spur is characterised by a moderately short wheel holder and slightly curved shackles. The six prongs of the wheel are particularly striking.
Wheel spurs of this type came into use in #Austria from the first third of the 13th century as the successor to spiked spurs.

For #FindsFriday, we would like to show you a vessel from our #excavation in #Grossmugl/ #LowerAustria!
It is a completely preserved sieve vessel with an open top and bottom. The exact function of this vessel is not yet known to us, but we suspect that it could be an incense burner. Comparisons can be found from the Early #BronzeAge #Věteřov culture in #Moravia.

For #Findsfriday, we have a find from the #Roman #massgrave in #Vienna, #Simmering. It consists of several scales of Roman #scalearmour, also known as lorica squamata. Scale armour appears in our region from the year 100, influenced by #cavalry #soldiers from the east of the empire.
What is particularly interesting is that the scales from the Hasenleitengasse have square perforations - unusual, as these holes are normally round

For #FindsFriday, we have some finds from the #cemetery of the #Elisabethinenspital in #Vienna. These were found during our 2019 #excavations on behalf of the #Franziskusspital. They are so-called #Breverl, paper pictures of #saints that were worn on the body, for example, in a #pendant made of metal and glass, to ward off #evil. The finds here date from the 18th century, but Breverl were widespread until the 20th century.

Today, we are presenting a beautiful #Roman #coin from the 3rd century for #findsfriday.

It is a #denarius of #Severus #Alexander, who is depicted on the obverse. On the reverse is #Mars and the inscription MARTI PACIFERO ([dedicated] to Mars, the bringer of peace).

Happy #FindsFriday!

Today I dropped by my local museum and had a squint at their 'Into the West' display (somewhat unceremoniously in the corridor upstairs). It contains some beautiful #finds I worked on earlier this year - a delight to see!

Not sure why one case was so empty - possibly those #artefacts are back in Aberystwyth?

You can read more about the hoard here:
