class=\"content__body\">\n<p>Archaeologists working in England found a &#8220;mysterious lump&#8221; of a purple substance that in Roman times would have been worth more than gold, researchers said in a news release.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The researchers who found the &#8220;soft purple substance&#8221; are working on a yearslong investigation of Roman remains in Carlisle, England, a cathedral city in the center of the country. The dig is being led by Wardell Armstrong, an environmental, engineering and mining company based in the U.K.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The substance was found during a 2023 excavation of a Roman bathhouse. The remains of the third-century building exist on the grounds of what is now a cricket club, according to the news release.\u00a0<\/p>\n<aside class=\"newsletter_signup \">\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-newsletter-widget embed--float-none embed--size-large embed--type-iframe\" data-ads=\"{\" wordcount=\"\">\n<\/figure>\n<\/aside>\n<p>The team worked with the British Geological Society to test the material. Experts from Newcastle University provided further analysis and determined that it is an organic pigment containing levels of bromine and beeswax, according to the release.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-image is-image embed--float-none embed--size-medium\"><span class=\"img embed__content\"><img alt=\"tyrian-purple.jpg \" height=\"438\" width=\"620\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets1.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2024\/05\/03\/81b53195-3cfc-4dbe-b3c0-1874b5f1b073\/thumbnail\/620x438\/396da06ae1b07cc624cfdd96d7f98498\/tyrian-purple.jpg?v=1d6c78a71b7b6252b543a329b3a5744d 1x, https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2024\/05\/03\/81b53195-3cfc-4dbe-b3c0-1874b5f1b073\/thumbnail\/1240x876\/b706ca5a6c03a78ffc04920e4fc679b0\/tyrian-purple.jpg?v=1d6c78a71b7b6252b543a329b3a5744d 2x\"\/><\/span><figcaption class=\"embed__caption-container\"><span class=\"embed__caption\">The Tyrian purple pigment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__credit\"><\/p>\n<p>                Wardell Armstrong<\/p>\n<p>                          <\/span><br \/>\n              <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>These ingredients allowed researchers to identify the substance as &#8220;Tyrian Purple,&#8221; the color that the Roman Empire associated with its imperial court. The pigment is made from thousands of crushed seashells from the Mediterranean, North Africa and Morocco, according to the release, and was &#8220;phenomenally difficult&#8221; to make and expensive to produce, making it worth more than gold at the time.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The discovery of the material has led researchers to believe that the building under excavation was related to the court and may have even meant that the Roman emperor at the time, Septimius Severus, had visited Carlisle. Frank Giecco, the technical director of the organization leading the excavation project, said it is an &#8220;incredibly rare&#8221; find, especially in Europe.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s the only example we know of in Northern Europe \u2013 possibly the only example of a solid sample of the pigment in the form of unused paint pigment anywhere in the Roman Empire,&#8221; Giecco said in the release. &#8220;Examples have been found of it in wall paintings (like in Pompeii) and some high status painted coffins from the Roman province of Egypt.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation \">\n<p><h3 class=\"component__title\">More from CBS News<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<p><!-- tags --><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author\">\n      Kerry Breen<\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author__bio\">\n<div class=\"content-author__full-information\">\n<p class=\"content-author__text\">Kerry Breen is a reporter and news editor at CBSNews.com.
