In the summer of 1939, with the world on the brink of World War II, a wealthy widow named Edith Pretty decided to finally investigate the mysterious earthen mounds on her Suffolk estate. She hired Basil Brown, a self-taught local archaeologist dismissed by the academic establishment, to see what, if anything, lay beneath them. What they found would stun the nation and rewrite the history of the "Dark Ages."
This is the incredible true story of the Sutton Hoo discovery. Follow Pretty and Brown as their humble excavation unearths not just a grave, but an entire 90-foot-long Anglo-Saxon ship, buried as a magnificent tomb for a long-forgotten king. As they dug deeper, they uncovered a burial chamber filled with a breathtaking hoard of treasures: a spectacular warrior helmet, gold and garnet jewelry of unimaginable craftsmanship, Byzantine silver, and a pattern-welded sword.
This discovery proved that the Anglo-Saxons were not primitive barbarians but a sophisticated, wealthy, and well-connected civilization. This is a powerful story of intuition, class conflict, quiet dedication, and the astonishing moment a ghost ship sailed out of the earth to reveal the secrets of a lost age.
