Still, a stunning hoard and just awe inspiring. Again., this hoard truly demonstrates the craftsmanship and the rich culture that the Anglo Saxons had.
I'm glad it was shared for us all to see . Insted of someone selling it just for the gold value .
Some of these designs man. The craftsmanship of tage old centuries. Its absolutely timeless and incredible. Stuff like this and the like of cathedrals
Imagine all the people who passed it on the road... Whatever the case it is a treat to see such links to our own past. Gold is one of the few things that can survive.. Wonder what else may have been there and who was the person who put it there?
Stunning
Im in awe
The finder and farmer earned $4.2 million U.S. for it!
Que Bendicion conseguir este fabulo Tesoro de oro lo comparto en mi blog
Are those Garnet and Gold Wired pieces, Solid State Garnet Batteries and Circuitry ?
I wonder how many original piece's have gone missing cus they are a temptation to the people who have be trusted just saying
The only people talking about the Dark Ages now are those saying that there was no Dark Age. We know already, we know!
Why would the artifacts be mangled prior to burial??
They were interested in the value of the gold, not the objects themselves. So they compacted it for easy transportation and burial.
@@TyrSkyFatherOfTheGods Good point....and rather sad, too.
teacher is forcing me to be here still interesting
But what was it's origins....a reaping of a battles aftermath or grave robbers???
Why is this being used for my history lesson😛😝😜🤪
thats wat gets buried with a true king godbless jesusx
I get the impression of an extremely greedy man who had no appreciation of the artistry and violently condensed its volume as much as possible, was fleeing with it, but at some point buried it as pursuit was closing in.
The eye of horus. Nice.
It's still part of King John,s crown jewels lost in the wash and acquired by Welsh bowmen. Prove me wrong.
I bet it was buried by Vikings. Desecrated crosses and bishop's head pieces.
It could be that. But things get bent out of shape when buried for over a 1000 years. It was 400 years before the Viking raids on England. They went raiding at this time of course. But not England. They weren't even Vikings at that point either.
Could be one of two things. Either carbon dating is wrong. Or all the items were somehow made 400 years prior. But it is interesting and odd to have Norse and germanic influences in some of the art. And for the person to be buried in a longship. It's like it's some viking time traveller with great taste. (When you see the helmet and its recreaction)
I wonder where the body went. I always wonder that.
Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
so what have yo got to tell the public2 years later
it is viking like hack silver not a hoard .they did this all the time..they got it wrong
Its definately anglo saxon not viking designs
it produced a king like youve never seen before not like theses who pretend to be one sausages🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
it is so plain to see . it is a kings burial or the likes maybe only teeth remain in a large aria of staffs but from the finds I think hundreds of single deposits of gold items were left to show what a great man and legend he was and how much he meant in his rule and NOT FROM A tea leaf
It is not a kings burial. These items were discovered in broken and fragmented pieces. Many archaeologists believe that this booty came from a big battle nearby and was being taken back to Mercian workshops to repair and place back onto swords, etc. Look up Time Team Staffordshire Hoard here on RUclips... It's very interesting.
The Saxons were bigger tribe then the angles were nothing.
Adam, not quite as it is likely a lot of the hoard originated from the Angles of East Anglia as similar items were found at Sutton Hoo part of East Anglia. So the Angles were never ever nothing but something which we will forever treasure. They were likely to have been won in battle by Penda of Mercia a pagan.
guy never had permison and it was all covered up
can someone help me to meet Harry lowe's and Betty lowe's family..... I just want to know where the graves of Betty Lowe and Harry Lowe are.... maybe you won't believe what I experienced when I was little I always dreamed in the midst of wars and gunfire everywhere.... finally someone called my name Harry Lowe... with a friend who fought with me I went through it all and ended up on the train meeting my wife and child when I arrived at the train station.... i just want to meet the big family of harry lowe want to tell that they have a great father in fighting for his country I don't believe in destiny and reincarnation after death.... but the truth is i experienced it and I'm Harry Lowe
Some of them stole a pice I know but you know they going to suffer the consequences
Always a moron on here stating a lie.
Is the narration done by a bot, or just so badly read that it sounds like it? I honestly can't tell. In any case, what with the stilted script and the moronic background music, I just couldn't get to the end of this. The images and the comments of the experts are great. Why would you take such good ingredients and come up with this unlistenable stuff?
3 years 30 people. At least 3600000. Taxpayer money.
Cry about it
I'm no historian, far from it, I really don't like this term The Dark Ages. Why? I don't think it could have been darker than some periods of European history over recent centuries.
It refers to the lack of written primary sources.
so boring
This is NOT English as they have turned thier back on God.
away in the north with the words "Keep this safe it shows who We are as a People"
This is the Lost Tribes of Israel.
Know who You are.

Could you kindly show us examples of these pieces?
Hahaha

Lol lol lol go get a real life you bloody moron
