Catalogue of the Anglo-Saxon and Viking Antiquities

by Rosemary Cramp and Roger Miket

Describes and illustrates part of the extensive collection on permanent loan to the Museum of Antiquities, Newcastle-upon-Tyne. These are non-numismatic small finds and catalogued by Roger Miket, together with a selection of carved and inscribed stones by Professor Rosemary Cramp.

The small finds come from far and wide, amongst them being some remarkable objects. Features of the catalogue are the smallest of several cremation urns containing a cruciform brooch deformed by the intense heat! A bronze chain of interlocking S-links, bridle bits, a nail cleaner, ear pendants, wrist clasps and a selection of brooches of varying designs. Locations and the dates found are included in the text.

The stones are of relatively regional; provenance and these include examples of sculpture from the "Golden Age" of Northumbria which are of national significance in the history of Anglo-Saxon art.

There are 22 pages of photographs together with eleven pages of fine line drawings.

Price: £5.00 + £1.25 p&p U. K. (Ref: b0071)
