Relics of the Times before the Norman Conquest
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us on a journey back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich history of England before the Norman Conquest. The engraving, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, showcases an array of fascinating artifacts and landmarks that tell stories of ancient British times. In this image, we are presented with a collection of relics that include flint weapons and implements, showcasing the ingenuity and craftsmanship of our ancestors. Among these treasures is an Anglo Saxon cup from Halton, Lancashire, adorned with intricate ornaments that speak to their artistic prowess. The photograph also highlights significant historical sites such as Bridekirk's runic font and Bewcastle's runic pillar. These remarkable stone structures bear inscriptions from another era, preserving fragments of forgotten languages and cultures. Notably featured is Ethelbert's shrine; he was once King of the East Saxons. This sacred place serves as a testament to his reign and offers insight into religious practices during those times. Lastly, we witness a momentous occasion -the consecration ceremony for an Anglo Saxon church. This event symbolizes both spiritual devotion and architectural achievements achieved long ago. Through this beautifully restored image from "The Imperial History of England" we are reminded to cherish these relics as windows into our past. They serve as reminders not only of where we come from but also how far we have progressed on our collective journey through time.
