1,000-Year-Old Viking Treasure Unearthed in Norway

Archaeologists discovered silver arm rings and other artifacts buried under a historic Viking farm.

The treasure was found in Årdal, Hjelmeland, during an excavation for a new farm road.
Artifacts include four unique silver arm rings, soapstone pots, rivets, and knife blades.
Experts believe the items were intentionally buried over 1,000 years ago, possibly during a period of unrest.
The discovery provides new insights into Viking life and society, as the items were found in their original context.
The relics will be exhibited after researchers conduct soil analysis and x-rays of the artifacts.
