Archaeologists have unearthed a 1,400-year-old tomb holding the remains of a teenage girl and child, as well as delicate jewelry, in an Anglo-Saxon cemetery in Lincolnshire, eastern England.
The two people, whose age and relationship researchers are still untangling, were buried on their sides, with the younger child's skeleton huddled against the older girl's back. Two small gold pendants set with garnet gemstones and a delicate silver pendant with an amber mount were scattered around the teenager's head and chest bones. The grave also contained two small blue glass beads and a ring-shaped brooch.
