Abstract
Curator Dr Martin Goldberg joins Vikings writer and producer Michael Hirst to delve into the mysteries of the incredible Galloway Hoard. Chairing the discussion is special correspondent for BBC News, James Naughtie.
Buried at the beginning of the 10th century in Dumfries and Galloway, the Hoard lay undisturbed for a thousand years before being unearthed by a metal detectorist in September 2014. This incredible discovery brings together the richest collection of rare and unique Viking-age objects ever found in Britain or Ireland.
