Unique Viking runes discovered in Denmark
Unique Viking runes discovered in Denmark A comb with a runic inscription of the word “comb,” perhaps doesn’t sound so sensational. But it is. The comb dates to the early Viking Age around 800 CE. Just a handful of runic texts from this period exists. The comb was discovered during excavations of a Viking Age market place in Denmark’s oldest town Ribe. Alongside the comb, archaeologists also discovered a runic inscription on a small plate of bone or antler. http://sciencenordic.com/unique-viki...overed-denmark |
