VIKING BURIAL RING C.866-1067 AD, SIZE 7

Cambridgeshire England. Bronze, ring size 7. Plain band 3.4mm width with rounded face. Surface encrusted and retaining red cloth wound around, inside and out, indicating that the ring was buried separate from the body. Perhaps the ring of a deceased first spouse buried with a remarried Viking. Our research failed to provide any insight or parallels to this practice.
