Abstract:
Considers the custom of crown-wearing by kings at the great Christian festivals in the Early and Central Middle Ages, looking at: the continental European origin of the ceremony; its introduction to England; and the adoption of Gloucester as one of the principal crown-wearing centres of the English kingdom in the later eleventh century. Topographical and archaeological implications for Gloucester are also considered. An appendix identifies references to Gloucestershire in the Itinerary of the Kings of England AD 918--1042 (65--7).
