    Amazing ancient treasure find in Staffordshire UK.

    Staffordshire hoard: Amateur treasure hunter finds Britain's biggest haul of Anglo-Saxon gold | Mail Online


    What a piece of history the gentleman found, I love what he said quote:

    '‘I have this phrase that I say sometimes – “spirits of yesteryear take me where the coins appear” – but on that day I changed coins to gold.

    its a great read

    That is so ...awesome. Here's my favorite cus it fits. It's dug up in a time where it is sooo relevant. I don't know if the pic will load or not. But the translation of the inscription is here. That makes me happy and warm inside.

    More than 1,000 years old: A strip of gold with a biblical inscription in Latin. It reads: 'Rise up, o Lord, and may thy enemies be dispersed and those who hate thee be driven from thy face'

    I guess I couldn't get the picture to show up in the thread, but the link does work.

      its very amazing, I love the map of Anglo Saxon England.
      The history is awesome, I just can't imagine the current Political National parties here in the UK liking that map on their wall, lol.
