  • Viking Man Lost Weighty Gold Ring in Essex 1,000 Years Ago, Say Archaeologists Curator Carolyn Wingfield on the Almost Pure Gold Ring Lost by a Viking Man in Essex
    Viking man lost weighty gold ring in Essex 1,000 years ago, say archaeologists Curator Carolyn Wingfield on the almost pure gold ring lost by a Viking man in Essex "The size and weight of the ring suggest that it was most likely worn by a man. It weighs over 32 grams and we know from X-ray fluorescence analysis at the British Museum that the metal is over 95% gold, the rest being silver and copper. That’s fairly common for gold of this date, to be a good standard. Vikings were very concerned with the purity of the metal. On silver coins you sometimes find little nicks made with a knife blade where they were testing that they’d got decent quality silver. Fig 1: This weighty gold ring, dating from between the 10th and 12th centuries, was lost by a Viking in the Essex town of Thaxted© Saffron Walden Museum It’s got a little bit of damage - probably hit by a plough or something in the thousand years that it’s been buried - but it’s our policy to preserve the ring as found and not try to restore it to ‘as new’ condition. The ring was made by twisting two strands of gold wire and then twisting these with two tapering gold rods to form a hoop. The thin ends of the rods and wires were joined at the back of the hoop by beating them together into a flat, diamond-shaped plate. The plate is decorated with tiny punched circles. Fig 2: A metal detectorist reported the ring after finding it in 2013© Saffron Walden Museum This is a fairly widely-known style that goes throughout the Viking period.

  • THE STORY of an ENGLISH SAINT's CULT: an ANALYSIS of the INFLUENCE of ST ÆTHELTHRYTH of ELY, C.670
    THE STORY OF AN ENGLISH SAINT’S CULT: AN ANALYSIS OF THE INFLUENCE OF ST ÆTHELTHRYTH OF ELY, c.670 – c.1540 by IAN DAVID STYLER A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham August 2019 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT This thesis charts the history of the cult of St Æthelthryth of Ely, arguing that its longevity and geographical extent were determined by the malleability of her character, as narrated within the hagiographical texts of her life, and the continued promotion of her shrine by parties interested in utilising her saintly power to achieve their goals. Arranged chronologically and divided into five distinct periods, the thesis demonstrates that this symbiotic relationship was key in maintaining and elongating the life of the cult. Employing digital humanities tools to analyse textual, archaeological, material, cartographic, and documentary sources covering the cult’s eight-hundred-year history, the study charts its development firstly within East Anglia, and subsequently across the whole country, and internationally.

  • White Roding Parish Council
    Welcome to White Roding 2019 issue Introduction Welcome to White Roding. We hope this book will help you find your feet in our village. A copy can also be found on the Parish Council website http://www.essexinfo.net/whiterodingparishcouncil This book has been produced and funded by White Roding Parish Council. History Originally the village name was Blanche Roung but at a later date became White Roding. According to the 1841 census return, the village of White Roding, had 94 inhabited houses and 4 uninhabited units, with a population of 488. The 1901 census showed that the number of households had reduced to 84 with a lesser population of 375. Today the number of properties shown on the electoral roll is higher at 136 but the population is only in the order of 255 adults plus children. During the 400 year Roman occupation of Britain many roads were constructed and three of these intersected near Great Dunmow; one travelled north east from Romford, one approximately north from Chelmsford and one travelling east-west from Colchester to Dunstable. As a consequence Roman coins and artefacts have been found in the fields surrounding the village. The coins are mainly bronze denarii and were minted during the period 211 BC to 270 AD under the orders of the relevant Roman emperors. The Parish Church of St Martin is of Norman origin with later additions. St Martin’s Church was constructed circa 1100 AD of flint rubble, some stone and Roman brick. It has a large embattled tower, originally surmounted by a spire, which contained five bells, all of which are still in situ although they cannot be used.
