At Kaupang in Vestfold county, Norway, lie the remains of Sciringes heal - Norway's first town. The University of Oslo, Institute for Archaeology, Conservation and Historical Studies (IAKH) has organised the large excavations that ran over three years, from 2000 till 2002. A smaller research excavation was conducted in Kaupang's harbour area in 2003. [Illustration: Flemming Bau (click for large picture)]

I once read in a novel a line of dialogue that went something like this: “If it weren’t for the Vikings, there would be no redheads in Ireland.”

This just in: ACLU & Sierra Club to Sue Norway for introducing invasive species to US (cod).

Say what you will about bringing rape and pillage, the cod was a nice touch.
