Through the eyes of Eleanor Bruce and Lucilla Gray, collectively known as 'Roman Found,' we uncover the fascinating world of metal detecting. They share their journey—from their first finds to the stories behind ancient objects. We explore their passion for history, the research involved, and their plans for the future discoveries, as well as highlighting the importance of responsible archaeology and some tips for people who want to take up metal detecting as a hobby.
