Archaeologists have lifted the lid of an ancient Roman sarcophagus unearthed at a building site near London's Borough Market.
The 1,600-year-old stone coffin, discovered at Swan Street, Southwark, is thought to contain the remains of a mother after the bones of a baby were found nearby.
An amazing series of photos shows excited archaeologists peeking inside the sarcophagus on Tuesday.
