After we came back from our summer tour, I happened to read about stoned Vikings at L'anse aux Meadows. Can this be true? Let's go and fact-check...

After two months of traveling the North, we are back for a while to have some "normal", non-Viking life. We had a beautiful and interesting time and want to thank everyone who joined us - be it for weeks, be it for a fun evening only.

Viking Age wool comb finds are comparatively few, scattered and - compared to big textile finds, great collections of weapons or jewelry of gold and silver - not as easy to spot in the literature. We did, however, find a very nice pair of wool combs this year which is comparatively well preserved. This one we would like to show you in this article.

The blog post might have gotten fewer during the last months, but that does not mean that we are hibernating in a corner like some bat, waiting for spring. On the contrary, we are working, researching and trying out stuff.
