Anglo Saxon Helmet full brass work
Sutton Hoo, near Woodbridge, East Anglia, is the site of two 6th- and early 7thcentury cemeteries. One contained an undisturbed ship burial, including a wealth
of Anglo-Saxon artefacts of outstanding art-historical and archaeological
significance, most of which are now in the British Museum in London. The site is in
the care of the National Trust.Sutton Hoo is of primary importance to early
medieval historians because it sheds light on a period of English history that is on
the margin between myth, legend, and historical documentation. Use of the site
culminated at a time when Rædwald, the ruler of the East Angles, held senior
power among the English people and played a dynamic if ambiguous part in the
establishment of Christian rulership in England; it is generally thought most likely
that he is the person buried in the ship. The site has been vital in understanding
the Anglo-Saxon Kingdom of East Anglia and the whole early Anglo-Saxon period.
