The discovery was only the beginning. In Part 2 of Treasure Tales – The Staffordshire Hoard, we explore how archaeologists, historians, and conservators painstakingly reconstructed thousands of shattered gold and silver fragments to reveal the story of Anglo-Saxon Mercia. From exquisite sword fittings and royal craftsmanship to clues about warfare, faith, and power, this episode uncovers how one remarkable find transformed our understanding of a lost kingdom. Join us as we follow the journey from freshly unearthed treasure to one of Britain's greatest archaeological discoveries.
