I take it proves trade routes were vibrant. A lot more vibrant than we take them to have been
Oh, I think they definitely were—otherwise, how to explain not only the goods but the isotopic evidence for long-distance migrants in western Britain and Anglo-Saxon England!? :)
Exactly it is frustrating so many are buying the Merovingian darkness when in reality it was vibrant
It really shows how effective Carolingian, and then "Renaissance", propaganda was in shaping our notions of the past.
Look at Bede who denied Penda bretwalda status. Rather nothing than admit a pagan overlord
Dr G...Is this indicative of trade or wearer?
I've seen it argued for the latter, fwiw... There's a few, but not a vast number iirc :)
Thank you(as ever)
