Description: The first two volumes of Bruce-Mitford's catalog and study of the famed Sutton Hoo ship-burial mound (featured in the 2019 film The Dig), perhaps the most important archaeological site for Anglo-Saxon England. These handsome hardback volumes were published by the British Museum and provide an exhaustive catalog of the artifacts found in the 7th century mound during the 1939 excavations, complete with hundreds of high quality images. Both volumes are in very good condition, though vol 1 lacks a dust jacket. They include all original maps, diagrams, and inserts (of which there are MANY). Vol 1: Excavations Background The Ship Dating and Inventory Vol 2: Arms, Armour and Regalia
