Was there a treasure map showing the location of a huge golden bell? I don't know, but I will bet you that as soon as obama hears about this he will claim that Vikings were muslims!

Other evidence that the grave belongs to a man who had traveled widely was found in a leather purse hidden inside the shield boss: The purse contained several Islamic coins.This article is obviously in error. President Obama is alive.

To go along with what others have posted. I recall reading that the Vikings
had regular trade from pillaging eastern Europe (for slaves) to the Islamic
world. Those coins could have been standard currancy for the Vikings.

Interesting. I suspect the owner died suddenly or you would think that he would have retrieved and used the coins.
There was also an interesting section on “Thor News” with Norwegian recipes. I think I will pass on the sheeps head and the "Rakkfisk" (think "pickled" fish.)
