  • Spong Hill est un site archéologique anglais du Haut Moyen Âge situé à North Elmham, dans le Norfolk. Occupé dès la Préhistoire, le site abrite notamment un vaste cimetière anglo-saxon où l'on a découvert plus de 2 200 crémations d'une période allant du début du Ve siècle au milieu du VIe siècle, ainsi que des tombes un peu plus tardives. Le site semble avoir été abandonné vers l'an 600. Il s'agit du plus grand cimetière anglo-saxon de l'époque païenne à avoir été entièrement excavé. (fr)

The site consists of a large cremation cemetery and a smaller, 6th century burial cemetery of 57 inhumations. Several of the inhumation graves were covered by small barrows and others were marked by the use of coffins. Extensive excavations of the Early Saxon cemetery and part of the associated settlement revealed evidence of Early Prehistoric occupation on the hill top, dating from the Mesolithic to the Early Bronze Age. Excavation of the Anglo-Saxon cemetery also revealed extensive occupation evidence: late Iron Age and Roman enclosures and field boundaries, an early Roman kiln, and a small settlement of 'sunken huts' and post-hole buildings possibly contemporary with the cemetery.
