Roman artifacts
Imperial era remnants
Roman artifacts are objects made or used in ancient Rome and its empire, from roughly 753 BCE to 476 CE.
The term covers everything from coins, pottery, and jewelry to sculptures, tools, and architectural fragments.
Museums display Roman artifacts; archaeologists excavate them; collectors acquire them—sometimes legally, sometimes not.
