Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Metal objects and bones found near Magdalen Bridge in 1884 are reinterpreted as the likely remains of a Viking warrior and his horse, buried on an island in the Cherwell around the year AD 1000. Though the date seems late, furnished equestrian burial continued in Scandinavia until c 1000. It is significant that the burial was so close to St Clement's, the possible site of a Cnut-period Danish `garrison'. | ||||||
