On display, instead, are fragments and everyday objects: Psalters, Bibles, chalices, icons, crucifixes, spoons, cups, coins and jewelry. It requires effort to appreciate the significance of such items. But with a bit of imagination, we can use them to help us understand the lives of our enigmatic predecessors...
