Dozens of ‘exceptionally well-preserved’ Viking skeletons unearthed in Denmark: ‘Truly unusual’
Fox News
Fifty Viking skeletons discovered in Denmark over the last six months -- some with artifacts from outside the country -- show they traveled internationally for trade.
"This discovery offers extraordinary opportunities to perform a wide range of scientific analyses, which can reveal more about the general health, diet, and origins of those buried. The analyses might even reveal whether the buried vikings were related, which would be particularly significant, as this has never been examined in similar graves."
The skeletons were found in the Danish village of Åsum not far from Odense, Denmark, over the past six months and were buried with artifacts from outside the country, proving that they traveled internationally for trade, according to the museum.
