Secrets of the Anglo-Saxon Goldsmith: scientific results from the analysis of the Staffordshire hoard gold.
The metal detector find & subsequent excavation of the Staffordshire Hoard led to international newspaper headlines. The assemblage of artefacts, some complete & others hacked or broken, perhaps the result of payments to Vikings (Dane Geld) to stop raids is a fascinating story. Gold is key in its craftsmanship, origin & re-use.
By Dr Eleanor Blakelock, Sedgeford Historical & Archaeological Research Project.
We're delighted to be hosting West Norfolk & King's Lynn Archaeological Society's annual series of lectures, focusing in the main on topics of local interest delivered by archaeology professionals or local people with specialist knowledge.
Lectures last approx 1 hour followed by Q&A.
Free to Society members & open to all for a small fee.
