1,300-Year-Old Viking Dress Found in Young Woman's Tomb in Denmark

A young Viking woman was buried at Skonager, close to Varde in Western Jutland, a find that has revealed something very rare in Danish archaeology: pieces of her clothes that have survived for nearly 1,300 years. The burial dates from the 8th century has been excavated by Arkæologi Vestjylland. It is exceptional in that it not only includes very rare textiles but also the woman’s teeth, making it possible to learn much about her health, clothing and other elements of her life.
Viking graves are very rare in this area of Jutland, and the acid soil of the region usually destroys organic materials after a few decades. Therefore, the preserved clothing in found this grave, called ARV 661 by archaeologists, is almost unprecedented. According to an Archaeology Magazine report, the burial shows that the woman was in a coffin placed in a ditch, her head resting carefully on a stone pillow.
