Interesting. I've seen this years ago, but didn't realise underneath Bloomberg. Ty. . The company, Bloomberg, financed archaeological investigations, reconstructed the temple, created a cultural exhibition around it, and extended its relationship with London Musrum through a major philanthropic donation. .archeology 2025, Blokmberg Philanthropies announced 20 million for London Museum, alongside donation of a collection containing more than 14,000 Roman artefacts from the headquarters excavation. . The museum also identified its previous Bloomberg-funded digital transformation programme. . Bloomberg publication explains the current reconstruction was positioned approx 12 meters west of the original temple to protect surviving remains. . Bloomberg L.P corporate developer acquired the site, funded archaeological excavation, commissioned the headquarters and helped establish the public archaeological attraction. . Bloomberg Philanthropies, cultural funder, supported London Museums Digital Accelerator work from 2023. . MOLA, archaeological research conducted the excavation and published research on early London's administration, commerce, legal documents, and inhabitants. . The 2025 London Museum announcemt also contains statements from Mayor Sadiq Khan, London Museum director Sharon Ament, and City of London Corporation policy chair Chris Jayward. . A public private cultural partnership. GLA. City of London Corporation. London Museum. Bloomberg. . The excavation recovered 405 Roman writing tablets, more than 80 of which were deciphered. . There was a dated financial document from 8th January AD 57, the earliest dated handwritten document known from Roman Britain. . There's a striking historical symmetry. The site now occupied by one of the world's leading financial information companies yielded some of London's earliest surviving business documentation. . It's soooo interesting. .
