History and archaeology related
The Vikings tv show is a rather confusing mix of complete historical accuracy, references to the sagas, and total bollocks. The history geek inside me has whiplash.
In other Viking related news, I am uncontrollably excited that they may have finally found a Viking-type 'sunstone'! See?!
Is anyone else amused that Richard III's relatives have banded together to protest where he's going to be reburied?
I still remain very sad that I couldn't find a chance to cite this article (or rather, the associated scholarly reference) in my quals. I couldn't find an excuse to mention piles of skulls, apparently. On the plus side, I did manage to cite Shelach & Pines 2006, which still remains my favourite citation of all time. I hope someday to find an appropriate person whose last name compliments mine, to write an article with.

Everybody knows that wherever his grave is will be a tourist attraction so it seems they're not going to let the potential revenue go without a fight. *sigh*
