(I don't know whether this will be region locked but here it is)
There was a boat found in Ardnamurchan containing a dead Viking and his equipment, dating all the way back to 1000 AD. Cool stuff huh?

Not all things Nordic are region locked.

These kinds of things always remind me of Tukushapal.

This is very cool. Thanks for reminding me of the similar Nord burial crypt in Morrowind.
I'm going to go play it now....it's been a while....lots of goodies in there.

Very much this. That was my favorite area in Morrowind and the one I most still think about.

That is very awesome. I'm reading through it right now.

Came in expecting pictures of mass warrior grave.

Left disappointed.

Wonder if they found a bottle o' scrumpy.

I was thinking of the Nord crypt in Morrowind inside the maze where the body is laid to rest in the viking ship.

Why couldn't an adventurer find it?

Thanks for sharing!

vikings sent their dead out to sea on boats

Apparently the boat rotted, but it says the rivets were found and enough evidence to tell what it was.

"Ardnamurchan" even sounds like a site in TES.

Sooo...
It took me a while to remember and find which club you get the Tukushapal quest from, but I made it now and saved at the very door !
Gonna wait until later this evening to go in .

It is indeed cool, and it makes sense as the vikings once inhabited and raided parts of the british isles.

@Ditre: They would also sometimes bury them with their ships.

Would be nice to see more pictures

A myth, unfortunately. Vikings buried people just like everyone else.
