Available for over a year

The 3,000-year-old artefact was found at a site dubbed "Britain's Pompeii", at Must Farm in Cambridgeshire. Archaeologists have described the find - made close to the country's "best-preserved Bronze Age dwellings" - as "unprecedented". Dan Damon talked to Mark Knight from Cambridge University's Archaeological Unit from the quarry where the excavation is taking place.
