The Galloway Hoard by Martin Goldberg

In 2017 an intense fundraising campaign ensured that what came to  be known as 'the Galloway Hoard' was saved for the nation. Since then work has been ongoing to preserve and understand it. Over 5kg of silver bullion, many unique and enigmatic gold objects, the rare preservation of textiles and an unusual range of other materials, make the Hoard the richest collection of Viking-age objects every found in Britain and Ireland. Dr Martin Goldberg and Dr Mary Davis provide the first full description of the Hoard and place the find in a wider historical and geographical context.

Dr Martin Goldberg is Principal Curator of Medieval Archaeology and History, National Museums Scotland.

Dr Mary Davis is Galloway Hoard Conservator, National Museums Scotland.
