UK archaeologists have discovered 10 Roman skeletons and a treasure trove in the county of Gloucestershire in the west of England, the BBC reported. The archaeologists stumbled on the remains and ancient artefacts while working at a construction site designed to house an eco park and a football pitch.<\/p>\n

Researchers are now examining the skeletons, looking for clues that will help them to establish their status as well as provide more information about the settlement they lived in.<\/p>\n

Archaeologists say some bodies were buried close together which suggests that they may be part of a family. As well as the remains, scientists uncovered Roman coins, pottery and jewellery. The discovery was made the same week archaeologists in London unearthed an 1,800-year-old Roman mosaic, the largest one to be found in 50 years.<\/p>\n
