Medieval necklace found near Northampton internationally important
Archaeologists have found a "once-in-a-lifetime" gold necklace dating back to 630-670 AD and described as the richest of its type ever uncovered in Britain.
The jewellery, found near Northampton, has at least 30 pendants and beads made of Roman coins, gold, garnets, glass and semi-precious stones.
The 1,300-year-old object was spotted in a grave thought to be of a woman of high status, such as royalty.
Experts hailed the discovery during the summer as internationally significant.
Archaeologists from the Museum of London Archaeology (Mola) found the necklace during excavations ahead of a housing development in Harpole, west of Northampton.
"When the first glints of gold started to emerge from the soil we knew this was something significant," said Levente-Bence Balazs, who led a team of five from Mola.
"However, we didn't quite realise how special this was going to be.
"We are lucky to be able to use modern methods of analysis on the finds and surrounding burial to gain a much deeper insight into the life of this person and their final rites."

History is usually written by those who did not partake in it. It would be accurate to state that history is a backward looking novel, full of political intrigue, whitewashing of events and cover up of inconvenient truths, or all truth.
Depending on the perspective of the writer For example the Chinese whitewash of Tiannuan square which the west has recorded differently.

Interpretation always shows much of the investigators and their time, but both are very interesting.

I think we need to take history with a grain of salt since we seem to get what others think we should get.
