Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Elaborate interlace. Oseberg find animal-head posts are five unique wooden posts with carved animal heads from the Viking Age found in the Oseberg burial mound near Tønsberg, Norway (100 km southwest of Oslo) when excavated in 1904. The find also consisted of the Oseberg ship, numerous other wooden and metal artefacts, textiles and sacrificed animals used as offerings to the two buried women. Four of the posts are on exhibition at The Viking Ship Museum (Norwegian: Vikingskipshuset) in Oslo, Norway; the fifth is only in pieces. |
