What seems more likely?
>Woman travels an ungodly amount of distance in post Roman world with little connectivity, ends up in a foreign land and immediately converts to a new religion, then returns home despite being sold (allegedly) with one ring only
or
>Woman receives gift from husband who either traded with or murdered an Arab trader, because it's a pretty ring

that alone discredits everything in the text

Read an Arabic article about this and they agree it's probably came from trade yet cucked swedes want to believe they were Muslim

>>3338357
What is more likely here

Vikings stole shit from everyone
Vikings loved Muslims

why are swedes such pathetic cucks

>>3338447
They always do this shit, don't they?

Didn't they find some female bones at a Roman fort in England and immediately jump to there being female Legionairres? Instead of, you know, women who worked at the fort, which they later concluded was the case?

Historians always want to be the ones who discover some revolutionary new thing that changes the face of history forever. I for one think it's pretty cool that some Swedes back in the day traded (or robbed honestly) some Muslims.

>>3338398
I fucking love that movie.

>Why are historians such memes?
1: She does not have a degree in history, but archeology. I don't know, but I would assume they also learn about methodology like Historians. Maybe not?
2: She is a woman

Why don't they melt this along with the others?

>>3339550
I don't remember that one, but I do remember some asshats finding female norse skeletons in England and arguing that women must've been viking raiders an shiet. As opposed to, you know, settlers like in the settlements that the norse had in Britain.

Honestly though, we've known about the trade through the Russian river system to the black sea and the Caspian for a long ass time. Hell, we know that steel in some viking burial sites had to come from the middle east because Europe wasn't producing damascus blades on any scale.

>Kill an Arabic man because your work for the Byzantines

>However, she says she’s not surprised that there were multicultural connections between ancient Scandinavia and the Middle East.
presentism at its finest.

>>3338447
>>3339550

Historians are normally pretty level headed and look at lots of different pieces of evidence to reach a sensible conclusion. Archaeologists on the other hand mostly got into the field because of Indiana Jones and so are prone to flights of romance and conclusion jumping.

>>3339644

Because this ring is unique and is actually recognisable as a ring, instead of a corroded bit of indistinguishable metal?

Doesn't this ring just prove that "a" muslim was in Sweden a really long time ago?

>>3339754
Crusader's went from Britain to the middle east, is it seriously that suprising that a single ring would make it from the middle east to scandanavia?

Nordics were also civilized by Mycenaean Greeks.

>>3340113
There is no evidence for a Mycenean trading post anywhere north of South Italy

>>3340121

And even in that case it was temporary emporiums established in native settlements

good movie, don't understand the hate (beyond historical inaccuracies which are the norm in hollywood anyway)

It would have take decades to travel this far back then. Especially by boat

Nice try faggot OP

>According to the archeologists behind the discovery, it’s a well-established fact that Scandinavians traded for glass with people from Egypt and Mesopotamia as far back as 3,400 years ago -- so it’s not that unlikely to think that seafaring Vikings might’ve taken the trip down there themselves and traded with the Islamic merchants in the region, says the researchers from Stockholm University.

Shiny item came from trade or raiding. They probably didnt even realize it was a language.

>>3338357

This is simply an interesting fact; a normal one given the well-known trade routes (and rape routes) the Scandinavian ancestors had with foreign countries starting late antiquity.

instead, this shit is being presented and acknowledged at high levels as some kind of "revelation" ; which really shows me that there is some form agenda behind what is happening in those god-forsaken countries with the Islam intake.

>>3340907
>instead, this shit is being presented and acknowledged at high levels as some kind of "revelation" ;

Is it? What are you basing this on?

>>3338357
Probably loot or an trade item bought from travels. Doesn't prove shit and the fact that someone uses this to suit their political agenda sickens me.

>>3340907

Did you know they've removed 'gullible' from the dictionary too?

This is what he does. He just keeps posting the same shit over and over again. Normally some variety of "why do you want a safe space" and "why do you worship blacks/Muslims/BLM/Antifa" etc. Just ignore him, replying makes him latch on and fully sperg out.
