Archaeologists working at and annexe of the Camelon Roman fort in Scotland discovered numerous artefacts from the period of the Roman occupation of Britain. The discoveries include Northern Gaul pottery, socketed bolt-heads, an ox-goad, hobnails and a possible oven.
Experts say that the blunt heads of the bolt-heads might indicate that they have been used as less deadly ammunition during target practice. The artefacts discovered in a large waste pit were dated using the radiocarbon method to between 41 BC and 116 AD. The Northern Gaul pottery was dated to mid-1st and early 3rd centuries.
