[MR] BBC: 7th Century Gaming Piece

[Groff, Garth (ggg9y)]

Noble Friends, Especially All Saxons:

This morning BBC reported on the discovery of a 7th century Saxon gaming piece, sort of like a thick bone checker: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-25041254 . The game piece comes from the excavation of a Saxon royal feasting hall at Lyminge. For more on the Lyminge dig and other items found there see the accompanying story: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-kent-24357191 .

Yours Aye,

Lord Mungo Napier, The Archer of Mallard Lodge
