Lot 456

Late 10th-early 11th century AD. A Petersen Type L variant Viking sword, the pattern-welded tapered blade with a width of about 5.7cm at the cross-guard, the point and cutting edges well preserved with traces of battlefield use clearly visible along its length; the tapered fullers are 2.2cm at their origin adjacent to the cross-guard; oppositely curved guards are wide, the pommel has a curved base-element and three lobes, with bands of separation between the lobes. See Petersen, J. De Norske Vikingesverd, Oslo, 1919; Bjorn A. Viking Antiquities in England, with a supplement of Viking antiquities on the Continent of Western Europe, Oslo, 1940; Oakeshott, R.E. The Archaeology of the weapons, London, 1960; Wilson D. M. ‘Some neglected Late Anglo-Saxon swords’, in Medieval Archaeology, 1965, 9(1), pp.32-54; Peirce, I. Swords of the Viking Age, Suffolk, 2002; Yotov, V. The Vikings on the Balkans, Varna, 2003. This sword finds good parallels in various similar Viking age specimens. Two very similar swords have been published by Peirce (2002, pp.77-81), both preserved at the British Museum. One of these is the very famous Witham sword (Bjorn, 1940, part 4, p.71; Oakeshott, 1960, p.134) which is, for its perfect state of preservation, one of the most important in the best public and private collections of the world. Also the Westminster sword belongs to this classification (Wilson, 1965, pp.42ff., pl. VII b"). Another occasional find of this typology has been excavated in Wales in 2002. Such swords were found especially in Britain having a diffusion especially between the 900 and the 1050 AD. They correspond to the period in which England was under the influence of the Danish, who settled there, and for a while England was part of the Anglo-Danish Empire of Knut the Great (1017-1035"). However, the fact that such swords are considered “Viking” does not mean they were used only by Danish warriors, instead it is highly probable they were in use both from Anglo-Saxon and Viking warriors, as shown for instance by the decoration of the guard of a similar typological sword from Norfolk (Wilson, 1965, pl. IVa), where the silver plaques remember the Winchester style, but the blade of the sword was bent according to the funerary Viking practice. 1.15 kg, 91cm (36"). From the family collection of a South East London collector; formerly acquired in the late 1950s; accompanied by an academic report by military specialist Dr Raffaele D'Amato. Most probably our specimen is a river find, like most swords of this type. It can be associated with the group of swords of Anglo-Saxon origin which comprises the Westminster Sword, the Abingdon sword, the Thames Sword, the Witham sword and many others. The most important stylistic element of this group is the lozenge decorations, here missing, but the general shape is absolutely identical. The category of this sword is characterised also from the three-lobate or five-lobate pommel. There were a number of methods of attaching the pommel in the late Anglo-Saxon period. Most of them depend on sweating the bar of the pommel on to the tang and attaching the pommel-knob either (a) by riveting the end of the tang over the pommel-knob or (b) by riveting the pommel and the pommel guard together or (c) by passing an iron bar through the pommel-guard and the pommel-knob. The first system is here visible, like in most part of the swords of Petersen type L (for instance on the sword recovered from the river Wensum, at Norwich, S. Wilson, 1965, pl.VI,B"). After the Norman conquest of 1066 AD, many Anglo-Saxons escaped to the East to join the ranks of the Imperial Guard of Byzantium, and in particular of the Varangian Guard, to which the sword belongs. Fine condition. A nice example of a well used sword.

Lot 568

8th-11th century AD. A silver ingot, D-shaped in section with rounded ends; two incised runic characters to the end of the flat face comprising a lozenge (old name: Inguz) and a vertical with two angled strokes (old name: fehu"). Cf. Montelius, O. Sveriges Forntid: Atlas I, Stockholm, 1874, plate 177, item 639; Thunmark-Nylén, L. Die Wikingerzeit Gotlands II: Typentafeln, Stockholm, 1998, plate 287, item 5; Page, R.I.

Property of an East Yorkshire private collector; acquired Hawleys, Beverley Racecourse, 21 September 2008, lot 179; found in Kingswood area, Hull, UK, in the early 1990s; shown to Hull Museum and subsequently identified as 14th century by the British Museum circa 2006; again shown to Hull Museum in 2008; recorded with PAS, York Museum Trust, York Castle Museum under reference number E05308 and the Coroner for the City of Kingston upon Hull in 2017; deemed not to be treasure under the Treasure Act 1996; accompanied by copies of the Portable Antiquities Scheme report number YORYM-CD0BFB, York Museums Trust record form, the Hawleys auction catalogue, and geologic report No. TL005213, by geologic consultant Dr R. L. Bonewitz. Kingswood is an area of generally low-lying land close to Kingston-upon-Hull, much of it now developed in modern times for housing. In the medieval period, from 1293 AD when Edward I took possession of the settlement at Wyke (it took its present day name by Royal charter in 1299 AD) and surrounding area, Kingswood was a place having a mixture of marsh and wooded land with habitation thinly scattered on small areas of higher ground; a mill on the riverbank was built by the monks of Meaux Abbey in the 13th century AD. With most of this land being unsuitable for agriculture, it is quite likely that, with it also not being adequately drained and subject to sea flooding (the Forthdyk/Foredike was cut in the 13th century AD), that the king might well have reserved the area for hunting. Open marshland would have provided an excellent resource and venue for falconry, hunting wild and waterfowl of all kinds; the wooded areas would have sheltered deer, wild boar and other animals. It is said (as published in the 1817 Guide to Hull, by J C Craggs) that King Edward I, in the company of a hunting party in the area, ended up at the then settlement of Wyke on the banks of the river Hull and, seeing the potential for a port both to defend against foreign invasion and to facilitate trade, soon after acquired it from Meaux Abbey. This ring is of superb quality and would have been the property of a very eminent gentleman; certainly nobility or possibly even of Royal blood. The dating is contemporary with the likely visits to the area of Edward I and, with the reference to the king hunting locally, it could well have been lost by a companion of the king during such a hunt. The ring is also unusual in having a garnet so carefully and skilfully shaped; unlike many of the period where simple cabochon or irregular shapes are seen. Very fine condition. A large wearable size. Extremely rare.
