    Yeavering Pt. 2 - Of Gods and Priests, Kings, Queens and Bede
    Apr 18 2022
    What was it like to be pagan and Christain the next?

    In this episode, we visit the site of Yeavering and its many strange burials to try and understand what the conversion of England must have felt like. We go beyond the historical story and explore the actual day to day "experience" of conversion.

    Next episode: Sutton Hoo and the Performance of Kingship
