National Museums of Scotland: Peebles Hoard saved for the nation

Cauldrons = not just for toil and trouble 🧉 The Blackburn Mill hoard was found in 1852. Labourers were cutting a drain on a farm in the Scottish Borders when they found two cauldrons (one placed over the other) and the objects within ⛏️ The hoard lay on blue clay, 15 inches below the surface of a peat moss. Its position suggests that at the time of burial, it was deliberately placed into a hole dug into the peat. These useful objects would have been rare and valuable, but there are no personal

This pectoral cross was found in the top layer of the Galloway Hoard ✨ It was the first sign that it was no ordinary ‘Viking’ treasure. The silver wire chain is still in place, coiled around it and threaded through the fitting - suggesting it was worn or used just before it was buried 📿 When it was found, it was so covered in dirt that conservation took around 80 hours 🤯 We’ll forgive it though, because it had been in the ground for over 1000 years. We used swabs, cocktail sticks, scalpels, ne

In 1958, St Ninian's Isle in Shetland was the scene of an incredible discovery. It was the start of the School holidays and a young Douglas Coutts had arrived on the wee island to help with an archaeological dig at a 12th century chapel here. The boy was handed a trowel and sent to dig in a corner, away from the real archaeologists... Before long, Douglas uncovered a slab marked with a cross. Beneath that lay a hoard of 28 elaborately decorated, silver Pictish items. They dated from around the 8

These 3 gold objects were discovered in the very last bundle to be unwrapped inside the Galloway Hoard vessel 🤯 They were wrapped in linen, and found with coils of braided silk. The silk was analysed, which revealed that alternating strands were dyed with a combination of blue and red colours 🔵 🔴 The 3 tiny animal heads measure only 3 or 4cm long. They’ve been decorated beautifully in gold filigree, and their eyes are blue glass. But what are they? Well, we now think these were all part of a
