Answer: The owner 's conversion to Christianity

Explanation: Sutton Hoo was the place where kings were buried during the 6th and 7th centuries, also known as the English Valley of the Kings. It is considered the richest cemetery in Northern Europe. A large number of remarkable artefacts have been found in the graves, such as various garments of kings, made of gold and jewelled, various weapons such as swords, spear shields and even a ship. Also, things from everyday life as the aforementioned spoons, which with their names symbolically signified the conversion of their owner to Christianity. These two silver spoons bearing the names of the apostle Paul before and after the enlightenment and conversion to Christianity symbolise the conversion of a great man or king who was a Gentile and became a Christian.
