Footsteps in History Exhibition Photos and Dialogue
This exhibition was created by the museum in collaboration with the St Neots Local History Society. We worked with the Society’s archivists who know an impressive amount about St Neots History. The High Street is at the centre of life in the town and we wanted to draw attention to its long history. Around the room are pictures and objects related to shops which once traded in St Neots, with pictures dating back as far as 1895. Items were taken from both the museum’s collection and the archives that the Society holds. This will be hopefully the first in a series of collaborative exhibitions with local groups in our area.
Special thanks to the St Neots Local History Society and their Archivists, and to the Accessioning and Collection team at the museum.

    Absolutely wonderful! One thing that I have noted of most/many Celtic cache's/hoards is that the condition of the Gold pieces are (almost) "always" in remarkable mint state as though minted and immediately stashed away, with some being lost to time, for our enjoyment. 🙂 To the gods was the purpose of the currency?

    Be fruitful and Multiply/ Said GOD the Father, we in the West have not seeded that Path, Now the West, who have not been Fruitful by not Multiplying Expect to be Fruitful. The long and hard road from The Father, their Road Against the Father, It will be given or taken from others. Those who will be fruitful and Multiply as the Father Decreed are the Humbled. Those who go against the Be fruitful and Multiply are the Messengers of Death and not for GOD Creations to be Fruitful and Multiply.

    Well my grandpa came from Sweden so I believe that all the people of this bloodline went to Iceland ! My family I guess didn’t but every time I go there I feel I’m home ! I’ve never felt like that before in other places I have been to ! Who knows maybe I do have some relatives their in Iceland ! In fact I married a man from there + we broke up then got back together to give up on eachother again ! He desired other women which I put up with but it was very hard for me but he is going back home to Iceland without me which for some reason makes me very sad ! ❤️🐇🐰🌹☮️👽🪐🛸🚀👻🥰😘😍💖I also believe in ghost because I saw them at the foot of my bed + my mom said they were my guardian angels !

    it's a revelation to see how Iron Age Celtic settlements were organised, and held and maintained their community using trade and livestock with the Romans and other Germanic tribes. Maybe, we over-value Roman civilisation in Britain.

  • @charity2275
    @charity2275 Před rokem

    PLEASE STOP USING THE SECULARIZED METHOD OF DATING. I reject any English speaker who uses BCE (Before Common Era) instead of the proper B.C. meaning Before Christ. The same goes for CE (Common Era) which non-Christians in recent times have substituted for the Latin A.D. meaning Anno Domini, "In the Year of our Lord" referring to after the birth of Christ. Jesus Christ was and is a REAL HISTORIC PERSON and there is plenty of historical evidence that He was on Earth more than 2,000 years ago. ACKNOWLEDGE HIM, or you lose all credibility.

    These are prehistoric coins, because history begins with scripture. All North Italy had settlement of celtic tribes. My city is named Bologna because here there was the celtic tribe of "Boi" till it was conquered by romans. The histroy of Britannia begins with the roman conquest too. The celtic tribe of Boi was settled also in Bohemia and around the lake Balaton.

  • @kimberlyperrotis8962

    It doesn’t make sense that these should bear the initials of a Roman toponym, if they were minted before the Roman invasion. Could the Roman name have been adopted from the preceding Celtic one?

    • @marksnow7569
      @marksnow7569 Před rokem

      Yes, the clue's in the difference between the early Roman name, Camulodunum, and the modern name, Colchester. The "dunum" and "chester" elements mean the same, a fortified place, but the latter is from Latin whereas the former is borrowed from Celtic (as still seen in Scottish and Irish names like Dunfermline and Dundalk).

  • @huwhitecavebeast1972

    Saying the coins were not used as currency seems like utter rubbish. The wealthy could have easily passed such coins between each other. They buried gold torcs, the Celts had a lot of wealth in general, many mines. That is why the Romans wanted to conquer them.
