A fascinating new entry in this popular series, exploring Britain's LGBTQ+ history through objects recorded by the Portable Antiquities Scheme.
The LGBTQ+ community is made up of a range of different sexualities and gender expressions. Although the terms we use to categorise this diversity did not exist in the past, that doesn’t mean that diversity didn’t exist. Some historical figures we know had same sex relationships, while others did not follow the gender norms of the day. Symbols that are used by the LGBTQ+ community can be found in the past, though their use and meaning might have changed over time.

This book explores themes relating to LGBTQ+ life and history, using objects found by members of the public and recorded with the Portable Antiquities Scheme. From a coin of the Roman Emperor Hadrian to a small lead bear toy, this book also covers the rich depth of history and range of objects that can be seen on the PAS database.

Ben Paites worked with the Portable Antiquities Scheme for many years, spending much of that time in Greater London. His area of expertise is in Late Iron Age and Roman metalwork, though has a wider interest in British archaeology.
