AngloSaxon buckets are frequent finds in 5th to 7thcentury AngloSaxon graves. They are constructed of wooden staves and copperalloy or iron bindings; some of them are no more than mugsized, others 20 cm or more in diameter. Elaborate decorative elements on some buckets and many of the grave contexts suggest that these buckets were status goods rather than everyday household equipment. Jean Mary Cook began collecting information on AngloSaxon buckets in the 1950s. This posthumously published corpus comprises 339 entries on complete buckets, bucket mounts and objects erroneously published as buckets, many of them based on firsthand examination, with information on their archaeological context. The detailed information in the illustrated monograph is accompanied by a website that enables the reader to search Jean Cooks database for certain aspects of bucket construction and design.
