Contact them for permission to reproduce it. | | | Description | A figure in the museum has puzzled archaeologists and historians, and could point to the wells' earlier history. Some feel it could be a Romano-British deity, others a mediaeval artefact. Consensus of opinion and evidence escape the debate. Picture taken with permission, and slightly blurred due to no flash used. |
| Posted Comments: Thorgrim (2005-06-06) | I vote for Romano-British. Similar in style to figures from Housesteads etc | AngieLake (2005-06-06) | Looks like the effigy of a dead baby to me. How do you know it's a 'he'? | TimPrevett (2005-06-07) | I had a mail from John Billingsley saying this reminded him of the Sheela-na-gig at Croft-on-Tees, pictures HERE. There is a similarity. What do you think? |
