LONDON (AP) -- Archaeologists in northwestern England have found a burial site of six Viking men and women, complete with swords, spears, jewelry, fire-making materials and riding equipment, officials said Monday.
The sagas I read recently told quite a bit about Vikings serving in the Court's of various English kings (as well as raiding in England). It is therefore gratifying, but in a sense not surprising, to learn of the discovery of a Viking burial ground in England.
