| Description: |
An account of the discoveries at Sutton Hoo, including the most recent excavations, and the light they shed on the world of the Anglo-Saxons. Carver draws on the range of research undertaken at the site to present a story of search and discovery alongside the story of the site itself and the information that the finds have revealed. |
| Synopsis: |
The Sutton Hoo site is one of the most important archaeological discoveries ever made in Britain, and arguably the world. Since the initial discovery of the ship burial in 1938, when newspaper reports with banner headlines kept the British public informed about the event, the mound burials and surrounding cemetery have yielded a wealth of archaeological evidence as well as glittering treasures. Martin Carver draws on the full range of research undertaken at the site, which was still being excavated in 1993, to present a story of the archaeological discovery. Beginning with the excavations, he goes on to tell the story of the site itself. |
