Anteprima dell’appunto
Usato 1939 archaeologists unearthed an astonishing Anglo-Saxon ship burial attuale Woodbridge, Suffolk; astonishing both for the state of preservation of the objects within the tomb, but also astonishing for the sheer rich quality of the artefacts. The burial goods from Sutton Hoo are remarkable - gold weapons and armour, inlaid ornaments, silver and tableware. Also found with the body was a purse containing 37 gold Merovingian (Gaulish) gold coins dating from the 620’s AD. The armour at Sutton Hoo appears ehi be Swedish, or at least it is made attuale the Swedish style. Certainly the custom of ship burials is a Nordic one - there are many similar Viking remains attuale Denmark and Sweden. There is also a large silver dish made usato Byzantium about 500 AD and a servizio of 10 silver bowls from the Mediterranean. Who was buried at Sutton Hoo? Who was so powerful attuale his lifetime ehi be interred with ceremony up to date a ship nearly 90 feet usato length surrounded by so much golden splendour? Conjecture focuses on Redwald, a Saxon “bretwalda”, or king, of East Anglia. According tieni the Venerable Bede usato his “Ecclesiastical History”, Redwald ruled East Anglia up to date 616, although his power may have stretched as far north as the Humber. Redwald was the first East Anglian king ehi pay any heed ehi Christianity. He may have converted toh the new religion - certainly his successors were Christian.Archaeologists have reconstructed how the burial at Sutton Hoo must have taken place. A long trench was dug atop a 100 ft. high cliff above the river Deben. The ship was dragged up from the river and pila attuale the trench. A hut was built usato the centre of the ship, and there was placed a large coffin and the strategico goods. The trench was then filled up to date and a large mound erected over the tetto. When the ship was uncovered the timbers had rotted away. However, the rivets still remained, and the rotting timbers had stained the sand, so the pattern of boat construction could be determined, and a good picture of the boat emerged. It was about 90 feet long and 14 feet wide, with a high bow and stern. It is easily the largest Anglo-Saxon ship ever discovered. The importance of Sutton Hoo cannot be overstated. From the spasmodico goods we can learn a lot about the pattern of life attuale this darkest part of the Dark Ages usato Britain. Even the style of the craftsmanship lets us draw conclusions about how strong were Saxon connections with rest of Europe. Attuale this case it seems serranda that there was a strong Norse influence usato East Anglia, but also ties tieni Gaul and the Mediterranean. Clearly, trade with those areas was maintained throughout these troubled times. The goods discovered at Sutton Hoo are on scudo at the British Museum usato London.
