🔎 Dyma ddetholiad o'r arteffactau rydym wedi dod ar eu traws yn Amgueddfa Ceredigion, a ddarganfuwyd i gyd yng Nghastell Aberystwyth yn ystod cloddiadau rhwng 1903 a 1988. Mae'r casgliad o ddeunydd o'r castell yn un helaeth iawn, gyda llawer o grochenwaith, gwaith haearn a deunyddiau adeiladu.
🐖 Dyma rai eitemau a ddaliodd ein llygad wrth edrych drwy'r casgliad hwn, er mwyn rhoi syniad i chi o'r amrywiaeth o ddeunyddiau rydym wedi'u gweld a'u cyflwr. Mae'r rhain yn cynnwys dis esgyrn (a'n hoff wrthrych, mochyn Stanhope o'r 1860au), crib esgyrn, allweddi a byclau haearn, hen filwyr tegan, darnau o grochenwaith, a'r panel ffenestr bach trionglog plwm.
🏰 Yn ogystal â'r archaeoleg sy'n ymwneud â chyfnod canoloesol y safle, rydym hefyd wedi mwynhau gweld yr amrywiol bethau bach a gollwyd dros y blynyddoedd gan ymwelwyr diweddarach â'r castell.
🏛️ Mae Amgueddfa Ceredigion Museum ar gau dros dro tra bo gwaith adnewyddu yn cael ei wneud. Fodd bynnag, bydd modd gweld mwy o gasgliad Castell Aberystwyth yn orielau'r amgueddfa pan fydd yn ailagor.
Yn y cyfamser, gallwch ddarllen mwy am Gastell Aberystwyth a'r cloddiadau ar Archwilio.

🔎 Here are a selection of the artefacts we have come across in Amgueddfa Ceredigion Museum which were all found at Aberystwyth Castle during excavations between 1903 and 1988. The assemblage of material from the castle is very large with lots of pottery, iron work and building materials.
🐖 Here are a few bits that caught our eye as we were looking at this collection to give you an idea of the range of materials we've encountered and their condition - from bone dice (and our favourite Stanhope pig from the 1860's), a bone comb, to iron keys and buckles, old toy soldiers, pottery sherds, and this small triangular leaded windowpane.
🏰 As well as archaeology relating to the medieval occupation of the site, we have also loved seeing the bits and bobs that have been lost in later years by subsequent visitors to the castle.
🏛️ Amgueddfa Ceredigion Museum is temporarily closed as it undergoes refurbishment - but you can see more of the Aberystwyth Castle collection in the museum galleries when it re-opens.
Meanwhile - you can read more about Aberystwyth Castle and the excavations on Archwilio.
