Brunanburh - The Battle by the Humber?


Listen Later

One of the great mysteries in the history of the British Isles is where exactly was the Battle of Brunanburh fought? How can the skeletons, weapons and armour of one of the most almighty battles of all time still elude historians and archaeologists alike?  Despite having no evidence or answers I have decided to wade in to the debate anyway armed with nothing more than an old and interesting source, detailing the histories of the East Riding of Yorkshire. Could this shed new light on an old conundrum? Was the East Riding of Yorkshire really where the great battle took place?
