But this Swedish Viking woman did
“A hiker camping in the Scandinavian Mountains of central
Sweden discovered a Viking brooch from what is likely the first female burial from the
Viking Age ever found in the Swedish mountains.”
“It is completely socially and religiously correct. The
Viking woman took all her most precious objects to the grave.”

As did this
woman in now Western Romania
In Western Romania, archaeologists “discovered the Copper
Age grave of a woman during construction of a new highway connector this
spring. It contained 160 gold rings, two gold beads, 800 bone beads and a
multi-spiral copper bracelet. Before this discovery, the total number of gold
artifacts found in the entire Carpathian Basin (consisting of large parts of
modern Hungary, Slovakia, Poland, Ukraine, Romania, Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia
and Austria) was only 150 pieces. That figure has now more than doubled in one
fell swoop.”
