A Roman Mystery and Waterloo's Disappearing Dead

Alice Roberts meets an archaeology team in Lincoln who are looking for more evidence about a Roman occupation along a road that leaves the city. She also visits Norfolk to explore an Iron Age hillfort, discovering how 4th-century Romans used it despite being built in the Iron Age. At a small community dig in Lincolnshire, Alice learns about a newly found object - a Roman dodecahedron, and discusses its possible functions with a renowned expert in the digging tent
