The County of Lancashire - and the City of Lancaster in particular
- have a richer archaeological heritage than is often appreciated.
This was most dramatically demonstrated in November 2005 with the
discovery of a massive stone bearing the image of a triumphant
horseman and his fallen foe. This was without doubt one of the most
significant finds of recent years. But who was the horseman, could
the many fragments ever be satisfactorily be reassembled, and what
did this stunning object mean for our history? To hope to answer
these questions, and to put this artefact where it might be enjoyed
by Lancastrians and visitors alike, would take the co-operative
efforts of numerous museums, four universities, and the
enthusiastic support of local people. This richly illustrated
volume represents a first attempt - by archaeologists, classical
historians, conservators and curators - to tell the stone's story,
and in doing so to unravel some of the mysteries surrounding Insus,
son of Vodullus.
