I have to admit the “Dark Ages” label really falls apart the moment an Anglo Saxon grave starts containing Indian garnets and Ethiopian ivory. That means a supposedly isolated 7th century community was already plugged into exchange networks stretching thousands of miles. I’m always filming overlooked history and the traces it leaves behind on my own channel, so details like that are irresistible. Brilliant job showing the period through objects rather than clichés. The people may have lived locally, but some of the things they valued had already travelled half the known world.

I really enjoyed this video and I learned a lot. I thought using re-enactors provided a charming way to illustrate it.

I don't need a video to know i couldn't survive without toilet paper, and refrigeration, no matter what year it is. Oh and hot showers, forget it.
