YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Archaeologists have discovered one of the largest Anglo-Saxon burial sites ever found in Britain while excavating for HS2, the high-speed railway line being constructed in England.

'Grave goods' including jewellery, swords, spears and even ear wax removers and tweezers have so far been found at the site in Buckinghamshire, a location which archaeologists have described as a 'treasure trove'.
