The Staffordshire Hoard!

Post by waveicle »

Wow! Did you guys see the news about the Anglo-Saxon find? 1500 pieces, sword fittings and parts of helmets – elaborately decorated! Filigree and garnets! Something like 80 pommels and 50 cross guards. Three times Sutton Hoo

I can’t wait to see what new designs come into the AA community. This is great news. So many new cool ideas for us. There are some pictures on CNN.com
