PhD Studentship on Anglo-Saxon Metalwork

Department of Archaeology and Conservation, Cardiff University

A PhD studentship is available within the research project concerned with the post-excavation analysis and publication of the excavations of Early Anglo-Saxon cemeteries under RAF Lakenheath, Eriswell parish, Suffolk. These excavations produced a large number and wide range of securely contextualised finds, and a key objective of the post-excavation programme is a thorough and groundbreaking analysis of the material resources, supply and technology available to and used by the population of the late fifth to late seventh centuries.
Deadline for applications Friday 19 March 2010
