From 12:00am ending at 11:59pm 10 days later, on Thursday 31 March
A talk by Alexandra Zhirnova from the Department of Anglo-Saxon, Norse and Celtic about the clothing and jewellery of the Anglo-Saxons, how they were made and why it matters.
After a brief history of the discovery of Anglo-Saxon clothing, we will “dress” an early English warrior and a princess in appropriate clothing while discussing what these clothes and jewellery meant to the people who wore them. You will also learn how Anglo-Saxon clothing was made and see some patterns you can use to make your own replicas of Anglo-Saxon garments.
Video will be upload on to the Department YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClq9imzowZn4yms6PgxZTJA
