  • "Since the early 20th century the scholarly study of AngloSaxon texts has been augmented by systematic excavation and analysis of physical evidence settlements, cemeteries, artefacts, environmental data, and standing buildings. This evidence has confirmed some readings of the AngloSaxon literary and documentary sources and challenged others. More recently, largescale excavations both in towns and in the countryside, the application of computer methods to large bodies of data, new techniques for site identification such as remote sensing, and new dating methods have put archaeology at the forefront of AngloSaxon studies. "The handbook of AngloSaxon archaeology", written by a team of experts and presenting the results of the most uptodate research, will both stimulate and support further investigation into those aspects of AngloSaxon life and culture which archaeology has fundamentally illuminated. It will prove an essential resourse for our understanding of a society poised at the interface between prehistory and history"
