Abstract (en)

Summarizes the results of excavations at Early Christian sites, 4th-7th cs., which confirm the new hypothesis that Christianity continued in Britain after the end of the Roman domination. Illustrates new findings from cathedral sites, important metalwork hoards, and a stained-glass window from Jarrow, the earliest known figured window glass (late 7th c.). Bibliography.
