The British Museum has finally finished the editing of the papers given at the international conference in July 2008. I was honoured to have been invited to give a paper at that conference and it is finally in print. A brief synoposis of my paper is that the brother's of King Harold are the only other Anglo-Saxon nobles besides Harold, Archbishop Stigand and King Edward to be depicted in the tapestry. the question is why? My paper explored the reasons why they might have been given a prominent place in the tapestry.
