Gold coins, do you collect coins ? StAlbans museum has a display of Gold Roman coins, a metal detecorist found them He hadn't been detecting for very long either, s few days or weeks ? Not very long though. .. Impressive collection if you havnt seen them. StAlbans Roman museum #verulamiam.
Alban should be England's patron saint in my opinion. Hes Britain's earliest martyr, StGeorge isn't even English, he's a soldiers saint , Edward 1st I think decided on George. Alban was beheaded in England. His blood was soaked up into English soil. I wonder if you can change things like that, 🤗 I want Alban. Yes I am biased bc StAlbans is my adopted home city ,
It's a good story.. but that's all it is, Gildas (6th century) hardly mentions Alban , he says the name once & mentions a shrine.. Considering christianity was a new faith in the 400s you would think a story like Albans would be written and copies sent around the empire. The Roman postal service was surprisingly fast , bc of the Roman roads. But Alban getting hardly a mention is very strange . Especially when reading Bedes version ( over 200 years after Gildas) with its description includes every minute detail of what happened... It doesn't take a Sherlock Holmes to realise it's church history. Based on nothing archaeological. Like most church stories.
Im from St Albans and im a good person. I go out of my way to help others achieve what they would like to achieve.

Going to use it for my lesson on Tuesday
My parents named me Albany after St. Alban. Im glad to know the history.
Be blessed.
not much i can use out of this video except the ending
Wonderful
Nice intro to St Alban. However, the subtitles were machine-generated, I imagine, and way off at several places.
