Tw bronze bowls

Bronze bowls

Metal bowls are not usually found in domestic contexts on Anglo-Saxon sites, since pottery was preferred for everyday needs. However a number of bowls have been found from rich and high status burials. The bronze bowl (AN1971.170) on the left was found at Fairford in Gloucester and the bowl (AN1909.1039) on the right was found near Stowmarket in Suffolk.
