Mit diesem Musikinstrument kämpften die Briten unter Königin Boudicca gegen die Römer Auf dem Territorium von Boudiccas Stamm haben Archäologen eine besonders gut erhaltene sogenannte Carnyx gefunden. Ihr Klang sollte Feinden Angst und Schrecken einjagen – der Erfolg war nur partiell.

Die Verbindung zu Königin Boudicca ist natürlich nicht nachweisbar. Aber wenn sich eine Gelegenheit bietet, diese Frau zu erwähnen, nutze ich die gerne. #Carnyx #Archaeology www.nzz.ch/wissenschaft...

There's so much more to tell about this lovely metal hoard - me? I'm thinking of those who made it, the techniques they chose, the designs they created.

Just wonderful! ❤️

All @theduncanmackay.bsky.social needs now is scenes of the block being scanned in a hospital, and conservation specialists slowing taking the block apart, and he'll be able to highlight all the people associated with this fab find.

Are the any dates for when the #carnyx was placed in the ground ?

Everyone is getting excited over the Carnyx (yes, it’s super cool), but we have another Iron Age boar in Colchester. Ok, it’s imported from the Roman Empire, but dates to the Iron Age. Lexie, the lexden boar, is just as worthy of praise. #DiggingForBritain #Carnyx #Boar

The Carnyx head with a crack, showing how thin the metal is.

Often the thickness of sheet bronze artefacts is similar, around 0.7mm, to the thickness of sheet gold in torcs like Netherurd, Snettisham Great torc etc.

Are we looking at the same skilled sheet metalworkers??

But we don't find sheet bronze torcs...

For #drawingdiggingforbritain and #diggingforbritain, which is on tv again tonight. Resisted the temptation of the #carnyx 😇. @richardosgood.bsky.social

Did this one early, as I've got a long day digging on site tomorrow, which usu leaves me too tired and cold to paint🙄😀

People have been asking me about the #carnyx drawing, as you can see it’s only a very small detail in a much larger drawing, which will one day be a painting. The first steps into a new project. Who is she, goddess or warrior? Follow and see. #illustration #dragon #pencildrawing

Better photos of torc & discs/terminals on #Carnyx.

Colour difference suggests torc might be gilded, although by no means certain.

From colour, I don't think it's solid gold & they didn't plate then. It could also be bronze, but with better preservation.

A #Carnyx like the one found in Thetford would be a really cool addition to the range of gear you can add to a @heroforgeminis.bsky.social miniature... How can we make that happen?

In 1768 the previous #carnyx to be found in England was pulled out of the river Witham near Tattershall. Lacking the zoomorphic head, it was interpreted as a Roman lituus. Unfortunately, it fell victim to early experiments in archaeological science at the hands of Joseph Banks and George Pearson...
