The Woruldhord Project
We claimed at the time of its discovery that the Staffordshire Hoard would prompt a surge in interest in Anglo-Saxon history. The fruit is apparent already. Oxford University’s Woruldhord Project is asking both members of the public and academics to send in any images, documents, audio and video they have that will further the study of the Anglo-Saxons and Old English, for collection on its website. They are seeking images of buildings, artefacts, readings and interviews, anything that might be relevant. The collection site is open until October 14th and can be accessed here:
