Sutton Hoo now on the Google Cultural Institute

Artifacts from the Sutton Hoo ship burial, a famous excavation of an Anglo-Saxon burial site, have been posted to the Google Cultural Institute.  They've got decent information, and very nice images of a lot of the objects from the exhibit, so if you're not able to get to the British Museum (or the exhibit was closed for renovation last time you were there, like me...), then this is a good way to see it.


The reconstructed Sutton Hoo helmet, and a replica of the helmet, side-by-side

Some pretty cool stuff, click through their gallery!
