They found a tool for measuring fish....calibrated to always measure about 20% longer than they actually were.

Obviously the whale bones were tossed there after they were finished eating it.

Wait a minute now...
Wasn’t Scandinavian under it’s own separate glacier during the last glacial? I’m pretty sure it was, and the deepest part was where the Baltic sea is now, similar to Hudson’s Bay in Canada—vast footprints of the center of a massive ice sheet.
After the ice melted, the land, which had been sunk under the ice sheet, has slowly sprung back—in fact, in some places, it still is rising.
Perhaps that lowland was a bay or harbor on the water then.

Svein struck pay dirt! Looking forward to him finding a boat...or a skull. LOL
And, bluefin tuna...folks ate well.
