Abstract

What’s the link between two dirt balls, a bundle of five silver arm-rings, and a golden bird pin? They were all found in the Galloway Hoard! This month, Matilda is joined by Dr Adrián Maldonado, a medieval archaeologist who is currently researching this unique and fascinating find. Tune in to find out the difference between medieval history and medieval archaeology, why people buried things in the ground in the past, and what any of this has to do with the coffins of saints.
