Sutton Hoo is an archaeological site in East Anglia, England, excavated in 1939 and comprising a total of 18 burial mounds, including the famous Sutton Hoo Boat Burial, where remarkably well-preserved and high-quality Anglo-Saxon artefacts have been found, showing native and Irish influences as well as Scandinavian, Merovingian and East Mediterranean backgrounds.
It is likely that the boat grave at Sutton Hoo was the burial place of the Anglican ruler Raedwald, who held power in East Anglia between 617 and 625. The most famous finds from this tomb are probably the helmet, bag and belt of Sutton Hoo, but many other precious artefacts have also been recovered.
