Online Conference Tomorrow!
There's an online conference tomorrow about warrior elites in the late 6th and early 7th century in Europe - most of the programme listing German titles, but with a few English items inbetween.
The conference is online and held by the LVR Landesmuseum Bonn, who are doing it in preparation of an exhibition. There's a paper by Dr. Petra Linscheid on tomorrow morning at 9:45 Berlin time about leather and textile fragments found in a grave in Wesel-Bislich, and there's quite a few well-known places that will get re-visited in the rest of the conference.
If you're interested, you can download the full programme here, and you can watch and participate in the conference via this Youtube link.
