Vikings. Beyond the Legend.

The Vikings also laid their dead in a ship, together with offerings and at times even sacrified slaves, then buried it in a large funerary mound. To date the most sumptuous ship discovered is the Oseberg Ship (Norway), which was for a woman (probably a queen or a priestess) who most probably lived in the ninth Century. Tell us about her journey, or about the trauma that her female slave would have suffered, buried alive with her mistress.
