Sarre Anglo-Saxon Cemetery - Grave 210

To Sarre Cemetery Introduction

GRAVE 210 - A small grave, a girl’s, the teeth being young. 
   Finds  A collection of beads by the neck, one bugle-shaped, of white glass gilt, (Plate VII.) and, I believe, unique. A wire ring, a rusted mass of keys, a bronze rivet, and a bronze pin. Under the neck, a fine circular fibula. The centre is a boss of ivory, from which radiate three sliced garnets. The boss contains a garnet, and is surrounded by three rims of silver, rising each higher than the other, the innermost being the highest. The teeth of another child were also found in this grave.
