Cunetio

Cunetio was a large walled town in a valley of the River Kennet in modern-day Wiltshire, England. Occupied from the 2nd century AD by Romano-British people, the settlement was abandoned in the early 5th century, the emerging post-Roman period. It lay near what is now the village of Mildenhall, about 1+1⁄2 miles (2.4 km) east of the market town of Marlborough. Scholars were unaware of the site until it was rediscovered by aerial photos in the 1940s. Archaeological excavations subsequently revealed a substantial urban area defended by large masonry walls. Artefacts recovered from Cunetio have included kitchenware, personal effects, and two hoards of Roman coinage.
