Research

I have started the research for my 6^th Century Kentish Anglo-Saxon outfit from the skin out for the Hordweard. At this stage I have gone for a scatter gun approach. I collected the two main books that I have for Anglo Saxon garb and then started researching on the internet for more resources. Most of these have come through in the form of Archaeological Reports from graves in and around the Kent area. At this stage I have not sorted through the different articles that I have found to see what are relevant to me and what are not but I think the majority of them should be relevant.

I have used key terms such as 6^th Century, Kent, Anglo Saxon, graves and then depending upon what I am looking for I have added in extra key words such as tablet weaving, broaches, beads, shoes etc.

The books that I have that will form the back bone of my research are;

Walton Rogers, P. 2007 'Cloth and Clothing in Early Anglo-Saxon England' Council for British Archaeology, York, UK

Owen-Crocker, G. 2004 'Dress in Anglo-Saxon England' The Boydell Press, Woodbridge UK

At this stage the articles that I have found that will probably flesh out the rest of my research include;
