Ya know, sometimes, I just hate it when I see a ping from you because I know I’m going to find a lot of interesting stuff and even more links that will take me places I never expected to go.
Before I realize it, I’ve spent an hour or more reading and learning and forming questions that I may never learn the answers to. But I keep checking out your pings and keep falling into the rabbit hole of archeology once again. I’m thinking one of these times, I’m not going to find my way out...and it will be your fault! ;o])
Thanks again for some awesome brain candy!

My pleasure! Over the coming years I hope there's more in the way of the finds in the Baltic. Roman trade with Baltic peoples appears to have been extensive, moreso than previously believed. About ten years ago a rescue dig in Copenhagen found not medieval Viking graves, but a Roman cemetery. All the bodies were chubby from eating danishes. Okay, I made up the danishes part...
