Couldn’t some Irish lads have beaten the tar out of some Vikings and made off with the booty, stashed it in a cave, and forgotten about it? Or put it there as a tribute to their God/s as thanks for being able to prevail?
Instead, we are supposed to be puzzled because the location does not match the currently delineated GPS/Google Map locations ‘confirmed’ by the ‘scientific community’?
Sometimes, I just have to shake my head...

The ladies wrang their fingers white,
The maidens tore their heair,
All for the sake of their true loves,
For them they'll see nae mair.
