Archaeologists in Rendlesham, Suffolk, have uncovered a seventh-century workshop that may have been home to the craftspeople who made the treasures of nearby Sutton Hoo, widely considered the greatest archaeological find in U.K. history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rendlesham<\/a> is just three miles away from the early medieval cemeteries at Sutton Hoo, and those buried there \u201cprobably lived at Rendlesham,\u201d a Suffolk County Council spokesman told the Daily Mail<\/em><\/a>. \u201cThere is also evidence of craft working at Rendlesham, so it is possible they may have produced some of the objects discovered in the Sutton Hoo burial grounds.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sutton Hoo\u2019s legendary discovery in 1939 was the subject of the\u00a02020 Netflix film\u00a0The Dig<\/em><\/a>, starring Carey Mulligan as landowner Edith Pretty, who hired archaeologist Basil Brown (Ralph Fiennes) to excavate the mysterious earthen mounds on her property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
