Staffordshire Hoard Links!





Associated Press is reporting that 55 year-old Terry Herbert, armed with a metal detector, has located the largest Anglo-Saxon treasure trove ever.

As you can see, absolutely gorgeous.

The initial dating is 7th Century.

For a stunning presentation of what was found check out this presentation at Flicker.

Also the Staffordshire County Council has a page. (It was down earlier do to an overload of site-seers.)
