Until now no traces of a sanctuary or riverine context have been found, which might indicate a religious deposition for the wine-set. It is possible that the valuable bronzes were hidden underground during the period of the hostile Germanic incursions in the second half of the 3rd century AD.

The website is at least one issue behind the printed issue now available, but that's not uncommon with magazines.

link didn't work. Got server error message.

[SunkenCiv]
