Hoards in Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages. Practices, Contexts, Meanings - 09-10-11/10/2019
Although late Roman and early medieval hoards often consist of extraordinary objects, the actual phenomenon itself has not recently been the focus of extensive discussion. Most continental research has focussed on findings attributed to armed conflicts or ritual deposition. Waste or scrap, for example, have only seldom been the centre of debate. A review of literature on prehistoric hoards shows that up to now the potential of their early historic counterparts may have been underestimated. Moreover, the dichotomy between religious and profane interpretations of hoards should be questioned.
