Beneath modern offices and shops at Spitalfields MOLA archaeologists discovered a burial place for the town's Roman dead. In the 4th century AD the area attracted some exceptionally rich burials, including the stone sarcophagus and lead coffin of the 'Spitalfields Lady', excavated in a storm of media interest in 1999.
