The new Roman York gallery at the Yorkshire Museum is coming to life as more and more artefacts and displays are installed in time for our reopening on 1 August.
Here are some pictures of what visitors will be able to do while they walk round. First is the chance to mint coins inspired by a coin featuring Severus, the African emperor who lived in Eboracum (York) for three years. The second picture shows our map of York – visitors will be able to lift flaps around the city to find out what archaeologists have found where.
And finally here’s just a portion of what is sure to be one of the most popular parts of the Roman gallery – the chance to walk on a real Roman mosaic.
