The Sutton Hoo Lyre, Beowulf, and the Origins of the Frame Harp
The old reconstruction, widely publicized and discussed by specialists, has been on exhibition in the British Museum since 1949. It is now replaced by the new reconstruction (PL. I). The change of this very early stringed instrument, the earliest reconstructible stringed instrument in Europe, from harp to lyre, is of great archaeological and musicological interest

Sutton Hoo Excavations, 1965-7
The first aim of this new excavation was to complete the study of the largest of the mounds. It was not known what the original shape of the mound was, whether oval or circular, what its height had been before excavation, whether it was surrounded by a ditch, or what structural or ritual features it might possess. It was also an aim to obtain more information about the site in general by cutting away the grass and bracken and making a fresh and s…

Sutton Hoo-a rejoinder
Dr Gordon Ward says that my paper 'Sutton Hoo-Recent Theories' is described by me as 'embodying the official views about Sutton Hoo' and 'thus claims very particular authority'. What I said in fact was (op. cit., p. 1) that, since opposite opinions had recently been expressed on certain critical aspects of the find (Pagan or Christian ? Grave or Cenotaph ? English or Swedish ?),' it is desirable that an official assessment of the issues should be…

A Celtic Balance-beam of the Christian Period
During excavations carried out in 1937 by Mr. G. J. H. Neely on a Viking and pre-Viking site at Ronaldsway in the Isle of Man, a bronze balance-beam was discovered on the edge of a disturbed grave with a lead weight close by. A full account of the excavations appears in this number of the Antiquaries Journal . The balance-beam is, however, of unique interest, and it has been decided to make it the subject of a separate paper which is based on a c…
