What did the vikings eat?


Like real life archaeologists, we studied ‘coprolites’ (fossilised Viking poo) to discover that the vikings ate peas, fruit, bread and fish. Unusually, we found evidence of small stones from the grinding wheels but the were probably not aware that they ate this! In addition evidence of their bad health was discovered when we found tape worms!
