Trimontium Trust Talk Series: #6 Dr Fraser Hunter’s Trimontium Top10
Jun 27th 2021 | Rob Longworth

Dr Fraser Hunter Hunter is principal curator of Iron Age and Roman collections at NMS, Edinburgh.

His research work focuses around three key topics:

  • understanding Iron Age decorative metalwork (“Celtic art”) in its European context
  • understanding the impact of the Roman world on the peoples of Scotland in its Empire-wide context
  • making the most of Iron Age material culture.

Fraser has been integral to the development of the new Trimontium Museum and here he talks about his top 10 objects from the new displays soon to be opened in Melrose, in the Scottish Borders.
