Rowan Brannan is a 12-year-old boy. One day, he was with his mother Amanda walking the dog. He saw something in the soil. He picked it up and brought it home.

Rowan held the thing. The more he kept holding it, the more he thought that it could be gold (金). He tried to find out if it was gold or not. But he found nothing.

Then a hairdresser (理发师) came to their house. She was in a gold-finding group. She took a photo of the thing and showed it to the head of the group. The head said it looked old and told them to call the British Finds Officer.

After much study, the British Finds Officer told the boy that it was a very special Roman bracelet (手镯). And it was gold and older than 2000 years. The British Museum said so too.

“It’s so wonderful! We have learned so many things. It’s like, ‘Wow, our house must have a long history’.” said the boy.
