Book excerpt: The early medieval ship burial at Sutton Hoo in Suffolk, whose discovery in 1938 yielded such rich treasures, posed many questions about the history of England in the shadowy period from the 5th to the 11th century. This one-volume edition of the annual bulletins of the recent archaeological campaign (1983-92), directed by Martin Carver, shows how the dig succeeded in establishing a context for those earlier finds, extending knowledge of the culture and society of the age.
