An archaelogical dig near Ecclefechan in Dumfries and Galloway is already unearthing some evidence of what's thought to have been a Roman genocide.

The dig only began on Monday, but ancient sling bullets have been found on the 3000 year old hill fort at Burnswark.

There's also evidence of Roman siege camps, the only ones to have been found in the UK.
