A cache of over 100 gold, silver and other items, the richest collection of rare and unique Viking-age objects ever found in Britain or Ireland, was unearthed by a metal detectorist in 2014. A large fundraising campaign ensured that what has come to be known as 'the Galloway Hoard' was saved for the nation. Having lain undiscovered since the beginning of the 10th century, it now provides an extremely rare opportunity to research and reveal many lost aspects of the Viking Age. There is a chance to see the treasure at the National Museum of Scotland 18 February - 18 October 21. The exhibition will subsequently go on tour to Kirkcudbright, Aberdeen and Dundee.The accompanying book places the hoard in a wider historical context and showcases the conservation and research work currently being undertaken to understand the hoard and its secrets. Exhibition: National Museum of Scotland, Edinburgh, UK (29.05.-12.09.2021) / Kirkcudbright Galleries, UK (10.2021) / Aberdeen Archives, UK (2022).
Matt Snader visits some controversial archaeological sites, some of which are attributed to Vikings.
In 2004 an important new Viking silver hoard was discovered near Huxley, Cheshire. This book brings together leading specialists on the Vikings to set out the latest research into Scandinavian settlement and activity in the North West and Wales, including archaeological evidence and the contribution of place names, historical research, and stone sculpture to our understanding of the period. These contributors also provide a definitive account of the objects themselves, their likely origin and date of manufacture, and consider the intriguing questions of why the hoard was buried in England and by whom.
Follow the trail to the high seas! Take to the high seas and discover a world of marauding, piracy, and most importantly: treasure. Learn about the voyages, flags, and bases of pillaging pirates alongside some of the most fearsome captains that have sailed the Seven Seas! As young scallywags read about what the pirates ate on board, coded treasure maps, and daring escapes, they can search for a hidden button in the book to open a secret drawer! What's inside? That's for the treasure hunter to find!
Treasures of many kinds still lie hidden below crumbling castles and ruined monasteries; in macabre tombs; in subterranean labyrinths and sinister caverns. Many sunken treasures lie beneath the seas, oceans and lakes of the world. Vast stores of pirate gold are still hidden on many a real life treasure island such as Oak Island at Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia. Many treasures were looted, hidden and lost after the two World Wars - Hermann Goering, for example, one of most powerful leaders of Nazi Germany, is strongly suspected of hiding huge treasures at Veldenstein and Lake Zeller. This fascinating, expertly researched book brilliantly reveals all these unsolved mysteries. The final section covers useful ideas for treasure-seekers: the study of old maps and charts; coded messages; secret symbols; and intensive research into the lives and locations of those people through out history who probably in all certainty, had treasure to hide.

Focusing on men from old families in England’s Wirral and West Lancashire regions, this survey traces the DNA of the local populace back to their Viking ancestors in order to determine the impact of past societies on their genetic make-up. Arguing that the areas exhibit many archaeological and historical features proving them to have had a clear Viking presence, this account provides background information on Viking settlements as well as conclusions drawn from the DNA testing. An illustrated example of how DNA methods can be used to learn about the past is also included.
