Not quite a skeleton, but an Anglo Saxon burial at #SuttonHoo. The bones have not survived, but the flesh had stained the sandy soil. During excavation, the soil was then laminated so that the figures of the dead were preserved & casts taken

Just had a visit from the widow of a woodcarver we used to know and admire. (We've got one of his works at home. )
She showed @pottedhistory.bsky.social and I photos of this life sized Sutton Hoo inspired piece.
It looks amazing. She's looking for a buyer who appreciates its value. #Craftsmanship

Turns out the iconic Sutton Hoo helmet may have Danish roots. A tiny copper stamp found on Tåsinge shares uncanny details with the helmet’s designs. Imagine tracing Anglo-Saxon bling back to a 7th-century Danish workshop. 🛡️🇩🇰 #SuttonHoo #Archaeology #Denmark #AngloSaxonArt
New Find Challenges What We Know About Iconic Sutton Hoo Helmet
Since its discovery in 1939, archaeologists have pointed to Sweden as the source of Sutton Hoo's haul. A Danish stamp says otherwise.

This uninspiring mound is actually the site of the famous #SuttonHoo ship burial! Built ~625AD for King Rædwald of East Anglia to sail to the afterlife like Beowulf
The iron structure here shows you where the prow of his ship once stood

As if Sutton Hoo wasn't enough, the icing on the cake was a visit to the Hoo Ship Company construction site in Woodbridge where a replica of the #SuttonHoo ship is being coaxed lovingly into being from tree trunks. The smell, the sound and the sight is extraordinary. Do go and visit!

It's a little known fact that the Snettisham Great Torc isn't really Iron Age, but was actually made from gold excavated from the #Saxon #SuttonHoo ship burial in 1939!
Oh yes, really! It's true! 😳

Masterpiece of Frankish design
Interesting to spot -
• Serpents above/below clasp
• Serpents entwined within circle
• Two birds “biting” the bosses
Animal ornamentation popular with Germanic people.

I never dreamed I'd end up writing about something so iconic as #Suttonhoo. Here's a piece today on my @enghistrev.bsky.social article in one of Spain's national newspapers. Very surreal! www.abc.es/cultura/inve...
Una investigación afirma que los guerreros enterrados en Sutton Hoo lucharon en el ejército bizantino
Publicado en la revista 'English Historical Review', el estudio señala que algunos de los hombres habrían participado en campañas militares bizantinas en Siria y Armenia contra el Imperio sasánida VI
