Reburial for Anglo Saxon remains

1001 CE to 1100 CE | Archaeology | Saxon
A funeral service, spoken in Anglo-Saxon, will be held in North Lincolnshire, England, to re-inter over three thousand skeletons that were discovered there almost three decades ago. The bones were disinterred as part of a study on the history of diseases.

The oldest skeleton is believed to date to the reign of King Canute, who ruled from 1016 to 1035.
