An introduction to Celtic metalwork and some manuscripts from the fifth century through to the Norman Conquest.

Celtic Britain traces the history of the Celts and Celtic culture from the arrival of the first scattered groups of settlers in Britain in the seventh century BC to the development of the kingdoms of medieval Scotland and Wales. Although a Celtic culture continued to flourish independently throughout the Roman and Saxon periods, influences from outside began to permeate Celtic society, particularly that of Christianity.

This book follows the path of man's occupation of Britain from the scattered pockets of habitation in the earliest Palaeolithic period through to his growing domination of the landscape and his capacity to mould his environment evident in the late Bronze Age.

Anglo-Saxon England, the final volume in the Britain before the Conquest series takes the history and archaeology of Britain from the 5th Century AD through to 1066, covering perhaps the most enigmatic period in British history, when post-Roman, native British and Continental influences amalgamated, in a manner often difficult to unravel. Drawing upon all available sources - archaeology, history, literature, place-names, and the results of the latest scientific methods - the authors show how the foundations of English life to the present day, and have bequeathed their legacy to the English-speaking people for the New World.
