An incredible hoard of precious Anglo-Saxon gold items, the likes of which professional archaeologists dream of finding, was discovered buried in a field by a jobless treasure hunter five years ago.
And now all 4,000 pieces of the Staffordshire Hoard have been brought back together for the first time, allowing experts to shed some light on life in the Dark Ages.
They believe the precious artefacts, which range from fragments of helmet to gold sword decorations engraved with animals and encrusted with jewels, are a ‘true archaeological mirror’ to the great Anglo-Saxon poem Beowulf.

Brock,
ReplyDeleteThanks for this wonderful article.
The origination of the name of the tribe Saxons was; Saacs Sons. The Sons of Isaac.
(The leading vowels were often dropped in ancient times.)
Historians, and 'authorities', respelled it to hide the origins of the words. Everybody knows that the Caucasian race, those who came from the Caucus mountains, are the same ones who went north out of Babylon... and ran away from Israel and her 'God', yah. They did not become the Lost Ten tribes, we, became the Deliberately Hiding tribes, hiding our roots, denying any affiliation with JOOS.
We learn something everyday. :)
