Corpus of Late Celtic Hanging-Bowls

Discover the fascinating world of ancient craftsmanship with the Corpus of Late Celtic Hanging-Bowls by Rupert Bruce-Mitford. Published by Oxford University Press in 2005, this hardback edition spans an impressive 550 pages and serves as a comprehensive exploration of the exquisite hanging bowls that have captivated historians and archaeologists alike.

This work originated from Bruce-Mitford's meticulous study of the bowls unearthed in the renowned Sutton Hoo burial site. Although intended as the fourth volume in the Sutton Hoo series, the project expanded beyond its original scope, reflecting the rich cultural significance of these artifacts. Despite Bruce-Mitford's dedication to the project even after his retirement from the British Museum, the book stands as a testament to his extensive research and passion for Celtic history.
