Sutton Hoo


 
 
 
This large graphic is taken from the original Science Museum drawing from the burial site. The multitude of rivets can been seen in their original positions and the location of the bulkheads and rowlocks along the sides. By counting the rowlocks it was estimated that 40 oarsmen were employed to propel this huge vessel. The bow is at the top and the stern at the bottom of the page.
