4 I am very pleased to introduce the Treasure Annual Report 2008, which provides a report on the operation of the Treasure Act 1996 during It is widely recognised that the Treasure Act 1996 has been extremely successful. Increasing numbers of finds are being reported: up from 747 in 2007 to 806 in 2008, and more than a 300% increase on finds reported during the first year of the Act (1998). The Act ensures that the most important archaeological discoveries are acquired by museums for public benefit and 265 were acquired in There are a number of people to whom I would like to record my thanks. I am very grateful for the work of the Portable Antiquities Scheme (PAS) and its dedicated network of Finds Liaison Officers (FLOs), who work closely with finders, advising them of their legal obligations, helping them report finds, and, together with curators at the British and National of Wales, writing reports on the items found. This report shows that since 2003, when the PAS was extended to the whole of England and Wales, there has been an average increase of almost 210% in the reporting of Treasure. MINISTER S FOREWORD I would also very much like to thank all the finders who have promptly reported Treasure in I am especially grateful to those finders and landowners who have donated finds to museums without claiming financial rewards, in order to reduce the financial burden on museums. In 2008 finders and landowners waived their rewards in 51 cases and their details are included in the tables on pages xiii xxxviii. I am also very grateful to the curators and conservators at national museums, who have written reports for coroners and/or undertaken scientific analysis on Treasure finds and the coroners who hold inquests on Treasure finds. I would also like to thank the Treasure team in the Department of Portable Antiquities and Treasure at the British, who have managed the Treasure process and ensured the speedy payments of rewards. It is also extremely important to recognise the hard work of the Treasure Valuation Committee and its Chairman, Norman Palmer, who have worked diligently to provide me with independent advice on the valuations of Treasure finds. I would also like to especially thank the funding bodies whose grants have enabled museums to acquire Treasure. Grants have been provided for items found in 2008 by the Art Fund, Headley Trust, Heritage Lottery Fund, Pilgrim Trust and the V&A/MLA Purchase Grant Fund. Ed Vaizey Minister for Culture, Communications and Creative Industries November 2010 iv v

5 INTRODUCTiON Under the Treasure Act 1996, finders have a legal obligation to report all finds of potential Treasure. For a summary see or the leaflet Advice for Finders of Archaeological Objects, Including Treasure. The Act allows a national or local museum to acquire Treasure finds for public benefit. If this happens, a reward is paid, which is (normally) shared equally between the finder and landowner, though the interested parties may wish to waive their rights to a reward, enabling museums to acquire such finds at no or reduced cost. Rewards are fixed at the full market value of the find, determined by the Secretary of State on the advice of an independent panel of experts known as the Treasure Valuation Committee. Although Treasure finds account for a relatively small proportion of archaeological finds found in England and Wales by the public, any archaeological finds may be recorded with the Portable Antiquities Scheme (PAS): this data is published online at The Scheme and its network of local archaeologists, known as Finds Liaison Officers (FLOs), play an increasingly important role in the effective and efficient operation of the Treasure Act, advising finders of their legal obligations, providing advice on the process and writing reports on potential Treasure finds for local coroners. Since 2003, when the PAS was extended across the whole of England and Wales, there has been an increase of almost 210% in the reporting of Treasure. Organisation The administration of the Treasure process is undertaken by the Department of Portable Antiquities and Treasure at the British, which employs a Treasure Registrar and four Assistant Treasure Registrars, one of whom is part time. This work involves the preparation of Treasure cases for inquest (at a Coroner s Court), the handing of disclaimed cases, the secretariat of the Treasure Valuation Committee, and the payment of rewards to finders/landowners. Treasure Annual Reports In 2007 the Treasure Annual Report was published together with the annual report on the Portable Antiquities Scheme. Prior to that a separate Treasure Annual Report was produced. Copies of previous reports can be found at property/3291.aspx TREASURE CASES 2008 Number of Treasure cases and geographic distribution The number of Treasure cases reported in 2008 continues to increase, from 747 in 2007 to 806 in 2008 (Table A); this is more than a 300% increase on the first full year of the Act (1998). Table A: Number of Treasure cases reported (England, Wales & Northern Ireland) Year No. of Treasure cases This increase in the reporting of Treasure reflects a wider understanding on the part of finders of their obligations under the Treasure Act, through the education and outreach work of the PAS and its FLOs (see Table E). Table B illustrates the geographic distribution in Treasure cases. This shows that reporting of Treasure was highest in Norfolk (109 cases), followed by Essex (57) and Kent (52) in 2008 whereas several areas (mostly metropolitan ones) have only a handful (or no) cases reported. This broadly reflects the pattern of cases reported since 1997 where reporting was highest in Norfolk (716), followed by Suffolk (373) and then Kent (331). Reporting of Treasure in 2008 was significantly less in Wales (21 cases) and Northern Ireland (3) compared with England (782), as is expected given archaeology, topography and population: Wales has only a single full-time PAS post (though finds recording work is also undertaken by the Welsh Archaeological Trusts) and Northern Ireland is not covered by the Scheme. vi vii

7 Analysis of Treasure finds Table C provides the dispositional outcome of Treasure cases according to period and type. This shows that of the cases reported in 2008, 33% (265) have been (or are in the process of being) acquired by a museum, of which 6.35% (51) were donated, 45.58% (366) were disclaimed and returned to the finder/landowner, 17.31% (139) were deemed not to be Treasure; 4.11% (33) are still to be determined. Compared with 2007, slightly fewer cases are being acquired by museums (303 in 2007, 265 in 2008) and more are being returned to the finder/landowner (301 in 2007, 366 in 2008). The number of Treasure finds acquired by chronological period varies and differs between the categories of objects and coins. Of the objects reported Treasure in 2008, museums acquired 75% (6) that were Iron Age, 73.08% (19) Bronze Age, 56.92% (37) Early Medieval, 40.28% (85) Medieval, 30.65% (19) Roman, and 24.47% (58) Post-Medieval. Of the coins reported, museum acquired 46.15% (6) that were Iron Age, 42.86% (3) Early Medieval, 42.22% (19) Roman, 38.1% (8) Medieval, and 18.18% (2) Post-Medieval. In general terms, therefore, museums are more likely to acquire objects that are more ancient; proportionally less Roman finds are acquired as these are more common. Table D gives the method of discovery of finds reported Treasure in As in previous years, metal-detecting accounts for the vast majority (93.28%; 749) of Treasure cases reported in England and Wales. Although the sample of cases in Northern Ireland is small, it is interesting that two of the three cases (66.67%) are chance finds, and this probably reflects the fact that it is prohibited to search for archaeological objects there without a licence. Archaeological finds account for only 4.11% (33) of finds reported as Treasure in 2008, which is exactly the same number of cases as in The largest increase in reporting (though the sample size was small) was in Treasure finds reported by a buyer (dealer in antiquities), which rose from three (0.4%) in 2007 to five (0.62%) in This might reflect the work of the Department of Portable Antiquities and Treasure monitoring ebay for unreported Treasure, though it should be noted that several cases listed on ebay by finders (rather than dealers) were also stopped.

Its FLOs advise finders of their legal obligations, provide advice on the process and write reports on Treasure finds. Table E shows that, since 2003, when the PAS was expanded to the whole of England and Wales, there has been an average increase of % in the reporting of Treasure. The most significant increases have been in the Isle of Wight (1,538.46%) and Sussex (1,040%), with both areas having a FLO for the first time in The only area to have a decrease is Northern Ireland (-13.79%), which is not covered by the PAS.

8 Enforcement It is the aim of the Treasure Act to encourage people to report finds rather than pursue prosecutions. This is reflected in the fact that finders have 14 days to report Treasure from when they first know or have reason to believe the item they have found is potential Treasure. However, that is not to say finders who fail to report Treasure will not be prosecuted. The Department of Portable Antiquities and Treasure works closely with relevant colleagues in local police forces, HM Revenue & Customs, and the s, Libraries and Archives Council (MLA) Export Licensing Unit, as well as the Metropolitan Police s Art & Antiques Unit and English Heritage s Heritage Crime Initiative. Since February 2007, the Deputy Head of Portable Antiquities and Treasure has been seconded part-time as a Special Police Constable (with all the powers of a regular Police Officer) to the Metropolitan Police s Art & Antiquities Unit. To date he has been involved in several high-profile cases and operations regarding archaeological finds and other types of heritage crime. The British s Department of Portable Antiquities and Treasure continues to monitor ebay for items of potential Treasure, and question vendors of such finds. In 2008, intelligence on 101 cases was logged and made available to the police. Since September 2007, the Deputy Head of Portable Antiquities and Treasure, has been an Expert Adviser for export licensing applications of metal-detected finds, and in 2008 approved 278 licences, of which more than 82% were exported outside the European Union. In several cases, exporters of unreported potential Treasure were asked to report these items in accordance with the Treasure Act.
