| Another recently opened exhibit at York Minster is the "undercroft (basement)". Back in the late 1960's, it was determined that the bell tower would collapse if something was not done about the foundation under the cathedral that held it up. Subsequent excavations to reinforce the foundation revealed more about the Roman occupation and so on. Now the book above was not part of the find, but part of the undercroft exhibit. It is "1,000 years old and describes the life of Jesus. It came to York shortly after it was made and has survived the ravages of wars, fires, and ravages of time. It is still used in the Minster today-- a powerful symbol of continuity." |
