cba-sw newsletter - autumn 2010

1  Welcome! This is the fourth edion of the CBA SW Newsleer in its new format, and it seems that the new look connues to nd favour with our readers. As for the content, this connues to evolve: this me something of a theme has emerged with the South West taking a prominent place on the naonal stage. Not only is the CBA Weekend Meeng taking place in Cornwall this year (see page 3), but two major archaeological events have brought the South West - and more specically Somerset - into naonal prominence, and, what’s more, on the major news pages, rather than tucked away in the specialist interest secons. There is, however, one way in which the newsleer’s contents fall short of our own ambions, and that is that they remain rather too top down: we do hope that, as the newsleer becomes more est ablished, it will be used by you, its readers, to share your news, views, plans and experiences. We give all of our  contact details on the back page: do please make use of them! Issue 4  October 2010 DATES FOR YOUR DIARY 30 September and 7 October , Bristol and London Docklands: MIRO workshops on minerals in the historic environment (page 10) 15-17 October, Truro: CBA Weekend Meeng (page 3) 20 October in Wells, and 12-13 March 2011 in Dunster: SANHS symposia (page 9) 30-31 October , Cardi University: conference on Emperors, Usurpers and Tyrants (page 10). THE FROME HOARD HITS THE NATIONAL HEADLINES In our previous edion we  carried an arcle about the discoveries of a metal detectorist and about the role of the Portable Anquies Scheme (Issue 3, June 2010, page 15). The Iron Age objects found in Cornwall were remarkable and signicant, but have been somewhat upstaged by the nd reported by David Crisp from a eld near Frome. He originally found 21 coins, but then came across a ceramic pot lled with more. He images from www.archaeology.co.uk/news-f eatures/frome- hoard.htm
