Archaeologists Uncover Secrets Of Anonymous Viking And His Sword
MessageToEagle.com – The discovery of an anonymous Viking man and his sword attracted attention in the media last year.
He was found in August 2014, in Skaun in Sør-Trondelag county, Norway. He had lain in his grave since the second half of the 900s CE.
Now, a research team from NTNU’s University Museum has analyzed the shield remnants that are part of a burial ground from the Viking Age.

Viking shield bosses were made of rounded metal and placed in the middle of the shield. The rest of the shield was made mainly of wood. The cupped metal bulge covered the handle and provided additional protection there. This particular boss has a depression in it that could indicate an axe or sword strike.
