Exhibition explores the story of 2,000-year-old skeletons

    2,000-year-old skeletons found in Leeds are to go on display together for the first time.

    The ancient skeletons of a mystery Iron Age man and woman will be part of a new exhibition opening in Leeds next month.

    12 skeletons from Yorkshire and London will be displayed in Leeds City Museum’s special exhibitions gallery from 22 September.

    Some of the remains from Yorkshire have never been exhibited before, including the pair recovered from a single grave during archaeological excavations beside the A1 near Bramham between 2007 and 2008.
