List of hoards in Britain 1

List of hoards in BritainThe list of hoards in Britain comprises significant archaeological hoards of coins, jewellery, precious and scrapmetal objects and other valuable items discovered in Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales) and the Isle ofMan. It includes both hoards that were buried with the intention of retrieval at a later date (personal hoards, founder'shoards, merchant's hoards, and hoards of loot), and also hoards of votive offerings which were not intended to berecovered at a later date, but excludes grave goods and single items found in isolation. The list is subdivided intosections according to archaeological and historical periods.

Neolithic hoardsHoards dating to Neolithic period, approximately 4000 to 2000 BC, comprise stone weapons and tools such asaxeheads and arrowheads. Such hoards are very rare, and only a few are known from Britain.

Bronze Age hoardsA large number of hoards associated with the British Bronze Age, approximately 2700 BC to 8th century BC, havebeen found in Britain. Most of these hoards comprise bronze tools and weapons such axeheads, chisels, spearheadsand knives, and in many cases may be founder's hoards buried with the intention of recovery at a later date for use incasting new bronze items. A smaller number of hoards include gold torcs and other items of jewellery. As coinagewas not in use during the Bronze Age in Britain, there are no hoards of coins from this period.

Iron Age hoardsA large number of hoards associated with the British Iron Age, approximately 8th century BC to the 1st century AD,have been found in Britain. Most of the hoards comprise silver or gold Celtic coins known as staters, usuallynumbered in the tens or hundreds of coins, although the Hallaton Treasure contained over 5,000 silver and goldcoins. In addition to hoards of coins, a number of hoards of gold torcs and other items of jewellery have been found,including the Snettisham Hoard and the Stirling Hoard.

List of hoards in Britain 2

Romano-British hoardsHoards associated with the period of Romano-British culture when Britain was under the control of the RomanEmpire, from AD 43 until about 410, as well as the subsequent Sub-Roman period up to the establishment ofAnglo-Saxon kingdoms are the most numerous type of hoard found in Britain, and Roman coin hoards areparticularly well represented, with over 1,200 known examples. In addition to hoards composed largely or entirely ofcoins, a smaller number of hoards, such as the Mildenhall Treasure and the Hoxne Hoard, include items of silver orgold tableware such as dishes, bowls, jugs and spoons, or items of silver or gold jewellery.

Anglo-Saxon hoardsHoards associated with the Anglo-Saxon culture, from the 6th century to 1066, are relatively uncommon. Those thathave been found include both hoards of coins and hoards of jewellery and metalwork such as sword hilts andcrosses. The Staffordshire Hoard is the largest Anglo-Saxon hoard to have been found, comprising over 1,500 itemsof gold and silver.
