Archaeologists moved in to make a comprehensive examination of the site and were amazed to find a graveyard from the early Ninth Century. Preliminary excavations revealed three graves belonging to rather wealthy women from the time, with above average grave goods, one of whom had been buried with a 4m boat!

On a small rocky knoll on the west coast of Norway, archaeologists have uncovered a rich burial ground from the Viking Age.
