Archaeologists have unearthed an early medieval cemetery on the grounds of a 12th-century castle and evidence of ritual feasting at the site.

Researchers believe there could be as many as 80 graves at the cemetery, which is thought to date to between the 5th and 7th centuries. The burial ground is located within the grounds of Fonmon Castle in the south of Wales.
