This study focuses on the sheaths and scabbards of the Anglo-Saxon
period, rather than the blades once held within them. Esther
Cameron presents a largely technical approach to the study of
material from the period of the first Anglo-Saxons in England in
the 5th century, through to the 11th century. Alongside a large
corpus of examples, she looks at the nature of the material
evidence, of skin, leather and wood, and the composition of the
materials used, their decomposition and preservation in the
archeological reord. The wider significance of her findings for
Anglo-Saxon archaeology and for the study of organic materials form
archaeological contexts in general, are revealed in the final
chapter.
