Roman 'curse tablet' found in Kent


Ursus

Recommended Posts

If you were called Sacratus, Constitutus or Memorianus, and had some bad luck in Roman Kent, archaeologists may have discovered why.

 

A "curse tablet" made of lead and buried in a Roman farmstead has been unearthed in East Farleigh.

 

Inscribed in capital letters are the names of 14 people, which experts believe were intended to have bad spells cast upon them.
