Описание: 60. The Viking warrior graves discovered to be women after 1000 years The grave, discovered in the 10th-century Viking town of Birka, Sweden, was long considered a classic example of a powerful male warrior's tomb. The occupant was buried with an extensive array of martial equipment: a sword, an axe, a spear, armor-piercing arrows, a battle knife, two shields, and even two horses. It was the complete gear of a professional warrior. The 2017 DNA analysis that confirmed the remains were female sent shockwaves through the historical community. Furthermore, the inclusion of a full set of gaming pieces suggests she was not only a fighter but also a respected military leader capable of strategy and command, challenging what we thought we knew about the roles of women in Viking society.
