Uncovered
A loan of objects to the new permanent gallery at the
Plymouth City Museum and Art Gallery.
When did people first arrive in the Plymouth area and what did
they do when they got here? Uncovered,
the new permanent gallery at the Plymouth City Museum and Art
Gallery, contains hundreds of artefacts discovered in the local
area such as skulls, domestic items, porcelain, pottery, urns,
ingots, axes and coins.
The gallery spans a time period that stretches from prehistoric
times through to the present. The British Museum has lent items
from the Salcombe Treasure to help tell this story.
