King Raedwald of East Anglia (reign 599-624 AD), an Anglo Saxon Bretwalda (sort of high king) is believed to be the man who was buried in the Sutton Hoo Ship.
The ship and its treasures (many of which are on display in the British Museum) were discovered in 1939. The centre piece is an amazing warrior helmet.
This is the story of Raedwald, the forgotten warrior king from Dark Ages Britain.
