Crucifixion in Roman Britain​

I happened to catch this show on PBS last night about a skeleton discovered in Cambridgeshire, England in 2016 with a nail through its heel. It's only the second such discovery ever -the first was in Israel in the 1960s and was not a complete skeleton. They use a lot of state-of -the-art technology to reconstruct this person's life and even their face. Very much worth a watch.

Actually I posted a link to the report in British Archaeology (CBA journal) on our Roman Resources in the dim, distant past (when they were probably still doing crucifixions around Cambridge):

It's still accessible, free to download.
