The Cleatham cemetery in North Lincolnshire is, with over 1200
cremations and 62 burials, England's third largest Anglo-Saxon
cemetery. It was in use throughout the early Anglo-Saxon period
from the mid-5th century to the late 7th century. Following full
excavation, the site was analysed in detail and it proved possible
to phase the 1204 inter-cut urns and a sequence of five phases was
constructed. This phasing was also applied to the grave goods found
within the urns, giving an insight into the sequence of metalwork,
beads, combs etc. Direct links were found between urns from
Cleatham and those from other cemeteries in Anglian England
allowing wider conclusions to be drawn.
