Abstract
- The article presents research aiming to gain a wealth of evidence about the meaning of the discovered largest-known cache of Anglo-Saxon metalwork of Stafford Hoard in 2009 in England. It mentions the representation of the hoard of a breath-taking Early Medieval jigsaw puzzle that is still being pieced together by specialist researchers. It also notes the claim of researchers that the hoard represents booty capture during multiple battles with different peoples.
