At a depth of 24 feet the diggers

from a nearby river and hid it in
its present location for safekeeping
during an attack from a migratory ! |
tribe. It is assumed the Romans j.
intended to send their treasure to
Rome to be minted, but probabiy i
suffered defeat and were forced to ;
abandon their wealth.
