Description
From Bronze Age hoards to Medieval pilgrim badges, the Portable Antiquities Scheme (PAS) records for Essex cover every period in history. The Burnham-on-Crouch hoard provides insight into the burial of objects in the Late Bronze Age, while the Ardleigh pommel highlights the incredible skill of Anglo-Saxon goldsmiths. The work of the PAS also provides evidence of how people continue to deposit objects today. This book showcases a select group of objects recorded with the PAS and explains their significance within our wider understanding of the archaeology of Essex.
