Sutton Hoo

[Raven]

Today I visited Sutton Hoo in Suffolk, England. It is an Anglo Saxon burial site. Huge hordes of treasure have been found there including the famous Sutton Hoo Helmet

This is what it would have looked like

The site is also home to 2 ship burials. One who they think is King Rædwald, The King of East Anglia in the 7th Century.



Here are some pictures I took

Very green

Did you keep any treasure?

 

[Raven]

Well it is in East Anglia!

No treasure in the mounds now, Its all in the museum

 

[Evil Eye]

Lots of sheep I suppose?

 

[Jazzy]

What a beautiful and peaceful place. What is the significance of the ring of grass in the last picture?

 

[Raven]

Lots of sheep I suppose?

And pigs, cows, tractors

Jazzy, I don't really know. I know that a circle represents life and the continuation after death. So maybe that, I don't know I just thought they looked really cool!

 

[Jazzy]

The pictures were very cool and I thank you so much for sharing them with us!

No problem

Was good to get the camera out again, Not done any photos since the winter ones.
