| Rings from the Snape Burial site |
Every month I receive news from the Suffolk Archaeological
Service. This generally gives an update
on what is going on in the Suffolk archaelogical world and highlights news that can be found on the interesting website, the Suffolk Heritage Explorer.
Anyone who is interested in Suffolk’s history should check out this site.
The team produces regular articles in a series called On the Vaults. The July article focussed on a grave at the
Snape Anglo Saxon Burial site where burials from the 6th and 7th
century have been found. In comparison with other finds at the site
this particular grave was notable for its simplicity, but goods found in the
grave, and other similar ones found elsewhere, have enabled experts to
reconstruct how Anglo Saxon women dressed.
The article in question can be found HERE, along with a link to the rest
of the site
More information about the Snape site can also bebe found HERE.
Recently the team moved to new premises and they are now
located at Suffolk County Council Archaeological Service, Bury Resource Centre,
Hollow Road, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk. IP32 7AY. 01284 741230
