Migrants will be the new Vikings to raid England again and big time in tremendous scale they will come. No Great Wall will stop them! https://www.rt.com/viral/389118-viki...vered-england/ Discovery of huge Viking camp reveals secrets of Norse armies in medieval England Published time: 21 May, 2017 14:25 Get short URL Discovery of huge Viking camp reveals secrets of Norse armies in medieval England © Jane Barlow / Global Look Press Archaeologists have uncovered an enormous Viking encampment in eastern England, a discovery that reveals much about the Norse armies that invaded Britain in the 9th century. The new study by the universities of York and Sheffield shows that the Torksey camp on the River Trent in Lincolnshire was larger than most contemporary towns. Home to thousands of Viking warriors and their families, a force much larger than previously believed, the Norsemen are thought to have wintered in the area before launching a larger invasion.

Now, the study reveals that the camp lay within a naturally defended area of higher ground, partially surrounded by marshes and bordered on its western side by the River Trent. Using metal detectors, the researchers found evidence of Vikings repairing their boats and melting down looted gold and silver to make metal bars to trade. More than 300 lead game pieces were also found, suggesting the Vikings passed a lot of their time playing games, waiting for spring and the start of their next offensive. The discovery forms the basis of a new virtual reality exhibition at Yorkshire Museum illustrating what life was like in the camp in the winter of 872-873 AD.
