The finds will form part of a permanent exhibition at Charnwood Museum.
A new exhibition of archaeological finds that date back almost 5,000 years has gone on display.
They include an object known as the Rothley "Face" plaque, a "unique example of Neolithic abstract art".The council said the exhibition shone light on a spectacular later Neolithic material culture from the time when Stonehenge was first being built. Other features found at the site, dating back to 2,900 BC, were a large, shallow pit - possibly the remains of a sunken hut - which shows signs of communal feasting.
Another pit contained broken and burned objects such as decorated pottery, roe deer bones, deliberately polished stone axes and a fertility symbol.
