The blade is well preserved but the handle seems rather bulky. Is it possible given the cracking that the wood has expanded bloating the wooden handle somewhat?

On closer inspection after the field season, it turned out that the handle was made of antler, not wood.

Most of Ulfberht Viking Sword are founded in finland area... Maybe alternative history is going on? Mayor Viking kings are related with Kainuu kinghood (Iceland sagas. (Kajaani) even NOR (Norway) was named after finnish prince. Most Viking age weapons are founded in Finland. Romans, Vikings and Mongol empires wont dare to come here ;) There are you some history.

The exact opposite of LAHT: Found Ancient Low Technology. Absolutely wonderful. I taught skiing for a decade at Coronet Peak. :) 3:57 - 1,300 years old is not prehistoric in any way, but it is very old for a pair of skis.

Seeing the fletching on the arrows gave me chills. Flight.

Will they succeed? Zero Snow Pack, no storm, they brought their dog for the 10 min hike. Yes they will succeed.

Here in Norway, it is 🙂 Historical sources only start 200-300 years later than these skis.

It would be cool to know the type of wood and age of that wood.

@secretsoftheice2798 6 ай бұрын

On closer inspection, it durned out that it is not wood but antler.

I love this channel. What an amazing find. And, as someone who did a lot of fieldwork myself, I’m so happy to see that duct tape is still indispensable 😊

It's either 1300 years old, or prehistoric, make up your mind. 1300 years old in that part of the world was the Iron Age.

Prehistory up here in Norway lasts to around Ad 1000.

But the oldest skis were found in Russia. This is the Komi Republic. 8000 years.

I suspect the grip was made of a hardwood and then covered in tanned leather or perhaps even raw hide.

How is 1300 years prehistory? Pretty sure Rome had historians and cartographers and mathematicians and astronomers like 2500 years ago…. Nords are barbarians I guess

1:30 shows 2 "flat head screws" on what appears to be on the bottom of the "skis", so I ask how that is thousands of years old because....... In 1744, the flat-bladed bit for the carpenter's brace was invented, the precursor to the first simple screwdriver. Handheld screwdrivers first appeared after 1800.

@secretsoftheice2798 2 жыл бұрын

No screws on the ski, which by the way is radocarbon dated.
