What do you think of when you hear the term “buried treasure”?

Is it sparkling jewels and hoards of gold? Or Roman secrets and Viking relics? The Museum of Liverpool is inviting you to uncover it all at its new exhibition, Treasure: History Unearthed. It’s the largest exhibition of archaeological treasure ever displayed in the North West!
