Viking ring reveals Swedens ancient Islamic ties

An ancient Viking ring carrying the inscription "for Allah" has revealed evidence of close multicultural contacts between the Nordic warriors and the Islamic world – more than a century after its discovery on a Swedish island.
Made of silver alloy, the ring is adorned with coloured glass, an exotic material at the time, engraved with an ancient Arabic script spelling the words “for Allah” or “to Allah”. The ring was found in a grave near Birka on Björkö Island in the Stockholm archipelago in the late 1800s. Other objects found in the grave indicated a woman had been buried there at around 850 AD.
The stone on the ring had previously been thought to be an amethyst. But on closer inspection Wärmländer and his colleagues revealed it was decorated with coloured glass – an expensive material at the time – and noted it was in perfect condition, indicating it had not had many owners and had not ended up in Birka by accident.
“Instead, it must have passed from the Islamic silversmith who made it to the woman buried at Birka with few, if any, owners in between,” Wärmländer told Discovery News. “The woman herself probably married a man from the Islamic world while visiting the Islamic Caliphate,” he added.

hmmm, even if it is islamic, who's to say it's not just the result of trading, maybe Islamic traders sold shit with Europeans and then these Viking fuckers stole it during one of their pillages.

>>136669414
Its almost as if vikings traded and/or pillaged mudslimes

>>136669414
I call bullshit on that cuck story.
The mudshits just traded with the Swedes in Rus. That fucking simple--it's a well-known fact that they were in contact. Not to mention there was the Varangian Guard that regularly brought back booty.

What a coincidence, the prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was white.

Kek to everybody here defending cucked Sweden even though nobody ever said anything about Muslims being *there*. Only that there was contact between some kind of Vikings and some kind of Muslims.
Y'all ever watch Vikings? There's literally a scene where they pillage (I think Spain) a Muslim village and slaughtered some fuckers.

>>136669414
>buried around 850
>Islam began around 1000
...so it's not Islamic, it's literally just the the word god in arabic script?

>>136669414
White nignogs were raiding and looting, the ring is mere evidence.
To this day, swedewhits have numerous treasures they stole from our land, including Codex gigas.
>>136670632
I think the idea is something like "see, we were friends all along, so would you just get along and mix it up already?"
>>
>>136670804
Gotcha, that makes sense actually. It's already too late for the Swedes, though. We just watch them burn now. I'm glad I'm Polish

well known the vikings met all sorts of people and traded with them, or captured them for slaves or ransom. in fact there is a book (don't remember it's name) of a Muslim guy that was captured by the vikings and his account of his time with them. true story - vikings had lots of interaction with lots of people not anything new. If people trying to read something into it then they are dumb.

>>136669414
Vikings traded a lot, means nothing.
>>136669486
sure

>>136669414
Vikings were essentially slavers who captured europeans and sold them to muslims, there wa sa high price for virgin blonde blue eyed girls.
>>
>>136669414
all peoples throughout history wholeheartedly endorsed the faith and culture of everyone they murdered and robbed
>>
>>136669414
Hey guys! check it out, this violent nigger tier group of savage rapists, murderers, and thieves that invaded Europe and tried to supplant the local population were influenced by Muslims. Checkmate islamiphobes.
Literally what the fuck? If vikings were Muslims that just means we should hate Muslims all the more.
>>
You guys forgetting that they traded European slaves for treasure right?
The ring was likely exchanged for a 12 year old virgin blonde.
