It is. Bog bodies have been encountered from time to time over the past couple of 100 years, but a big bog burial is rare, if not unique.

An area depopulated by the sword then simply left fallow? or too much for any surviving locals to be able to clean up after?

I would think remaining locals would not trust remaining, because another raid could occur.

Europe is drenched in blood. Every square inch was fought for, perhaps numerous times. They have now tired of it and so are gifting it to the muslim hoards because they have forgotten their roots.

Tis the nature of man.
Most forget that the Native Americans and the African Blacks were the same. More advanced societies just meant bigger wars.

Two things -- these are the remains found so far, and two, the rest of the population was probably carted off into slavery, not necessarily all that far. Ordinarily there would be fill-behind from neighboring areas, which is what happened a bit later. Looks like Copenhagen was a Roman territory, and used to control seagoing traffic and trade between the Baltic and the North Sea.
- Two Iron Age Sites Discovered in Finland | Popular Archaeology | Thursday, September 6, 2012 | unattributed | The other recently discovered site was located in Viirankoski, Loviisa. Based on the findings, the site has been dated to periods ranging through the Migration Period [4th & 5th c], the Merovingian Dynasty era [through the mid-8th c] and the Viking Age [8th through 11th c]. Similar objects have been found in Sweden in the areas of Lake Malaren, Birka and Göteborg. Several iron smelting furnaces, blacksmith forceps, hand- made ceramics and plenty of iron slag were uncovered at the site.

Perhaps re/final burial ??
In our own American Civil War they were still finding bodies (little more than skeletons) laying where they died a decade after the battles and the war was over.

Not quite heads on pikes, but close.
