"the viking stuff are 1 stair up and left"
it's not much in display there, some swords 1axe 2 spears 1 bukler 1ship and some "bling bling"


I'm a student, so i get in for free...
There are about 10 axes, 10 spearheads, one of them pattern welded, and half a dozen swords.
I need that digital camera... Worried

"this [fight] looks curious, almost like a game. See, they are looking around them before they fall, to find a dry spot to fall on, or they are falling on their shields. Can you see blood on their cloths and weapons? No. This must be trickery."
