In the 7th century AD, a King - it was surely no less - received a magnificent burial at Sutton Hoo, in East Anglia. A ship was hauled up from the river, a burial chamber was erected in the middle of it, and a stupendous collection of magnificent objects - gold and silver brooches and dishes, the sword of state, drinking horns and a lyre - was set in the burial chamber.

Try Vikings and a burial. It was a famous excavation of a Norse burial of a wealthy man, with wonderful artifacts and the hull of the most beautiful ship ever built!
