The dates of the coins range from 360-404, but two coins of Honorius and one of Maximus were clipped. If the Canterbury hoard compares to those studied by Burnett (see Part One above), the clipping perhaps took place during the reign of Constantine III (407-11), though it could have occurred later. Johns and Potter state "that the hoard was not deposited before the second decade of the fifth century."

FN60 Our understanding of the transition from Roman paganism to Christianity in Verulamium is confused by the presence of large numbers of the latest (fourth-century) Roman coins in the city's pagan temples. See Selkirk, Andrew and Niblett, Rosalind. 1990 "Verulamium." Current Archaeology 120: 417. Niblett suggests three possible explanations for this evidence: 1) the temples were used as rubbish pits in the late Roman period, 2) the temples had converted to churches and Christians were dropping coins in them, or 3) pagan offerings continued to be made nearly 70 years after the temples were officially closed in the Empire.

FN68 A.M. Burnett, "The Newton Mills, Bath, Treasure Trove," in Coin Hoards from Roman Britain, 193-98. A hoard of 255 silver siliquae was found in 1983 at Newton Mills Park near Bath. The coins range from one Trier siliqua of Constans (c.347-48) to 62 Trier siliquae of Magnus Maximus (383-88). Because the hoard lacks later issues of Maximus and his son Falvius Victor (elevated in 387), Burnett (page 194) suggests a deposition date of about 385, before the end of Maximus's minting of siliquae at Trier.

FN131 William of Malmesbury, in the twelfth century, described Glastonbury Abbey as the oldest church in all of England. In William's day, the Glastonbury monks claimed that the Old Church was built by missionaries from Gaul in the second century. William also writes that the Irish tradition at Glastonbury was very strong. Several shrines in the Abbey contained the relics of Irish saints, including Patrick, who by tradition established a rule for the community about 460. The chapel at nearby Beckery had an early cult of St. Brigid, and claimed to possess this Irish saint's relics. The name Bec Eriu , "Little Ireland," makes the Irish connection explicit. Plausibly, Irish monastics could have frequented Glastonbury in the sixth century before the arrival of the West Saxons.

Brit. Ser. 101. Oxford: 128. According to Boon (Boon, George C. 1986 "Theodosian Coins from North and South Wales." BBCS 33, 429-35.: 429 n.4), the clipped siliqua found at Caernarvon most likely belongs to Theodosius. Cf. Davies, J.L. 1988 "Segontium, Caernarfon." In N. Edwards and A. Lane (eds.), Early Medieval Settlements in Wales AD 400-1100. Univ. of Wales Press, Cardiff: 115: "The practice of clipping siliquae, although confined to Britain, is more likely to be attributed to the decade 410-20 than in a post 430 era (pers. comm. Dr. J.P.C. Kent)."

FN343 Boon, George C. 1983 The Roman Town 'Calleva Atrebatum' at Silchester, Hampshire. Calleva Museum, Reading: 72-73, 181-83. Though the basilical plan is also similar to some mystery-cult temples in Rome, the Silchester structure is different in that it contains a transept in front of the apse. Boon thus concludes (175): "This is the one particular element of the design which enables us to identify the building beyond doubt as a church."

FN354 Webster, Graham. 1985 Wall Roman Site.

Bassett shows that there was a British see (and possibly a monastery) at sub-Roman Wall which was succeeded by St. Michael's church in the adjacent settlement of Lichfield. This could explain Eddius Stephanus's statement (Life of Wilfrid , ch. 15 In Webb, J.F. (trans.) 1983 The Age of Bede. Penguin, NY.) that Lichfield was "a suitable place" to establish the see of the Mercians in 669. The see was given to the Irish-schooled Chad, who was consecrated (first) by schismatic British bishops.
