American Archaeologist Dies After Viking Ship Replica Capsizes Off Norway

Karla Dana, 29, was part of a six-member crew on an expedition from the Faroe Islands to Norway when the vessel encountered severe weather.

The Naddoddur, a 33-foot double-masted replica Viking ship, capsized near the town of Stad.
Five crew members were rescued by helicopter after escaping on an inflatable life raft.
Authorities believe a powerful wave caused the ship to capsize, describing the incident as a tragic accident.
Dana's body was recovered the following day; she was trapped beneath the vessel.
The expedition aimed to recreate historical Viking voyages across the North Atlantic.
