Description

An Archaeology of the Early Anglo-Saxon Kingdoms offers an unparalleled view of the archaeological remains of the period. In this new, fully revised edition, all of the key recent finds and developments in the field of Anglo-Saxon studies are incorporated. With an expanded text and an increased number of illustrations, C. J. Arnold uses the development of the kingdoms as a framework to closely examine the wealth of material evidence and analyze its significance to our understanding of the society that created it. Examining migrations of the Germanic peoples into the British Isles, the subsequent patterns of settlement, land-use and trade, social hierarchy and cultural identity within the kingdoms, An Archaeology of the Early Anglo-Saxon Kingdoms illuminates one of the most obscure and misunderstood periods in European history.
