Abstract: A RECENTLY excavated skeleton from an Anglo-Saxon burial ground at Jarrow Monastery is described.Virtually all the bones are abnormal, having the morpho- logical and radiological features of Paget's disease.It is one of the most convincing examples in the annals of palaeopathology and confirms the antiquity of this condition.
