[MR] Wikipedia: Sutton Hoo Helmet

[Garth Groff via Atlantia]

Noble Friends,

One of the featured Wikipedia articles for today discusses the famous 
Sutton Hoo Helmet. This 7th century Anglo-Saxon helm is thought to have 
belonged to King Rædwald of East Anglia. It was found in 1939 at the 
famous ship burial along the Anglian coast, and is today one of Great 
Britain's most famous and iconic treasures. For the story of the helmet 
and its amazingly difficult restorations (twice) see 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sutton_Hoo_helmet.

artifacts, try https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sutton_Hoo .
