Young Archaeologists: Unearthing Roman London

Join London Mithraeum Bloomberg SPACE for Young Archaeologists: Unearthing Roman London, a free family day.

From writing tablets and oil lamps, to coins and pottery, through inspecting, sketching, and questioning, young archaeologists will uncover the stories of the people who lived, worked, worshipped, and played in Roman London.

Suitable for children aged 5–11, with all ages welcome.
