Nestled within the embrace of rivers, downland, and the sea, Kent's archaeology has long held a distinguished reputation for its unique charm. When the Portable Antiquities Scheme, an initiative aimed at documenting objects discovered by members of the public, was launched in 1997, Kent emerged as an obvious choice to serve as a pilot county. And it did not disappoint. Kent has been the source of remarkable discoveries, including the awe-inspiring solid gold Ringlemere cup, a singular Roman Republican helmet – the only one ever found in Britain – and a collection of Anglo-Saxon garnet-inlaid brooches. Moreover, the anonymous and widespread scattering of pot sherds, buckles, occasional lost keys, and vast expanses of often enigmatic coins have added to the rich tapestry of Kent's historical narrative. By unraveling the history of Kent through its artifacts, every find in this book has been unearthed by a member of the public and meticulously documented by the PAS. Each discovery contributes to a more comprehensive and vivid portrayal of Kent's past, its people, and its intricate connections with the broader world.
