Abstract
Describes the investigation of two Iron Age buckets found at Alkham, Kent. The buckets were lifted from the excavation intact and examined with a radioscopic system using x-rays to produce a computerized image of their contents. The buckets were shown to contain a late La Tène brooch, repoussé plaques, and a toilet set.
