The Vikings were there. If they didn’t make it, they could have traded for it.
Amazing find, it is really beautiful artwork.
Well I bought me a blade,
One I could afford.
Too long to be a knife,
Too short to be a sword.

But I’m like poison ivy
And I’ll break out all over you.

“Due to its design and decoration, experts suggest it may have been associated with a solar cult and thus had special ritual significance.”
