Iron Age Gentleman

[poliphilo]

This chap lives in a display case at the Rochester Guildhall Museum. The label says "Iron Age"- and I don't suppose there's much more to be said. The Iron Age in Britain lasted for something like 600 years and its culture and history are obscure, emerging into a faint and flickering light with the arrival of the Romans. I find him tres sympathique and like to think of him as an ancestor.

That's rather a charming fellow! I wish we knew more about him.

We know so little about the Iron Age.

Indeed we do (or rather, don't), which is immensely frustrating.
