In September 2014, a metal detectorist discovered the rarest collection of Viking-age objects ever found to date in Britain. The Galloway hoard displays a remarkable variety of material and treasures, not only from the United Kingdom but as far as central Asia.

Discussing the extraordinary hoard, we delve into the range of objects. What can it tell us about medieval Scotland?
