LONDON Air Max 2017 Mens Sale , May 6 (Xinhua) -- One of the largest ever Romanexcavation sites ever discovered in the English city of Leicesterwas opened to the public Saturday.


Visitors were able to explore what Roman life in the city waslike over 1,500 years ago.


An archaeological dig has been carried out by University ofLeicester's Archaeology Services (ULAS) on a former factory site inthe city center ahead of a multi-million pound developmentproject.


Archaeologists from the university provided guided tours,showing a selection of the rare finds and artefacts found during anarchaeological dig.


Key discoveries include the remains of one of the largest andhighest-status Roman mosaic floors ever found in Leicester, twoRoman streets containing a number of buildings and rare evidence ofthe first Anglo-Saxon migrants to arrive in the city following thedemise of Roman Leicester.


Since the excavation began in September 2016, the team hasuncovered two Roman streets Air Max 2018 Mens Sale , one east-west and the othernorth-south, as well as two large high-status Roman houses withevidence for a number of rooms, some of which contain mosaics ofvarying patterns and designs.


In one room, the team discovered the largest and finest-qualitymosaic found in over 150 years in Leicester, made with small cubesof stone and tile throughout. The mosaic is in a room withunderfloor heating Air Max 90 Mens Sale , probably the principal reception room of amajor Roman town house on one of the main streets through RomanLeicester.


Vast quantities of pottery, coins, brooches, beads, hair pins Air Max Mens Sale ,gaming pieces and manicure objects were found as well as anexceptionally decorated knife handle cast in copper alloy, whichseemingly depicts a scene showing victims thrown to the lions inthe amphitheatre.


The team has now begun investigating the well-preservednorth-south Roman street which extends over 50 meters across thesite and found evidence for possible Anglo-Saxon timber structuresbuilt close to a Roman building, overlying a Roman street. Thisrelates to the period following the end of Roman Leicester, whenAnglo-Saxon migrants arrived from the continent and settled in theruins of the Roman town in the 5th and 6th centuries AD.


Richard Buckley, Co-director of ULAS said: "The excavation hasgiven us a rare and exciting opportunity to explore quite a largepart of Roman Leicester Nike Air Max 2017 Sale Clearance , known as Ratae Corieltavorum, revealingevidence for the homes of some of its wealthier citizens who livedjust a short walk away from both the town's baths and forum.


"Despite huge disturbance from modern buildings of the 20thcentury, evidence for Roman streets has survived together withfragments of some spectacular coloured mosaic pavements which thepublic will be able to see."


City mayor Peter Soulsby said: "This part of the city would havebeen at the very heart of Roman Leicester, and it continues toprovide further fascinating evidence of this important part of ourlocal history."


The land is owned by Charles Street Buildings group, who madethe site available ahead of a major planned development of thesite. The company plans to build two new 4-star hotels and one ofthe city's biggest ever office blocks.


The excavation site will be open to the public again on Sunday.Enditem


LONDON Nike Air Max 2018 Sale Clearance , May 9 (Xinhua) -- A tarantula spider the size of a human hand was abandoned in a street in the English city of Leicester, animal welfare charity the RSPCA said Tuesday.


The spider, discovered in a plastic box, has been identified as a Brazilian salmon pink bird-eating tarantula, the third largest species of tarantula in the world. It can grow up to a leg-span of more than 25 centimeters.


As RSPCA officers tried to trace the owner of the arachnid Nike Air Max 90 Sale Clearance , it has now being looked after by a specialist exotics keeper.


RSPCA officer Steve Smith said: "The member of the public who contacted us was understandably shaken by the size of the spider. Despite the size, the spider was not aggressive at all.


"Luckily we have found someone who has taken the spider on, so the spider will now live the rest of their life being looked after properly.


"We are concerned that someone abandoned a spider in the street like this. These tarantulas live in a warm and humid environment in the wild and need the same provided in captivity, to meet their needs and keep them healthy.


A spokesman for the RSPCA said: "Exotic pets often end up in our care after people realise they're not easy to care for, or once the novelty wears off Nike Air Max Sale Clearance , as for many people an exotic animal represents too much of a commitment.


"Caring for exotics can be challenging and expensive; the animal may grow very large, live for a long time, become aggressive or require a licence or other paperwork to be legally kept or sold. They have the same needs as in the wild, which include the need for a suitable environment, diet and to express normal behavior."
