So… Viking who converted to Islam, or loot from a raid, or what?
Clothes and jewellery around the decomposed skeleton showed it to be a female burial dating back to 850 AD.
Or maybe some Viking found himself a Muslim wife?
Loot, trade, conversion - it’s fascinating because the possibilities are really endless.

I’m gambling on booty for booty
Slave trade. Wife is a loose term in that context.
Guess a genetic analysis (if bone sizes isn’t enough) would check that quickly.
Just a tip, either put a date in the title or don’t write it like it’s something new. The article is from 2015.
And the ring is from 800. It’s all old stuff!
Ring went from Allah to valhalla
