In the heart of the rugged landscape of Hardangervidda, a vast mountainous plateau in Norway, a group of archaeologists, on foot and carrying tools, have retraced the steps of ancient travelers by exploring a historic route known as Nordmannsslepa.

Archaeologists have unearthed a set of uniquely decorated bracelets on the site of a "large and powerful" Viking Age farm.

The research team uncovered the treasure while examining a field in Årdal, Norway ahead of the construction of a new road.

Archaeologists from the University of Stavanger in Norway are celebrating an extraordinary discovery—they have found a Viking-era treasure that has remained "untouched" for over 1,000 years! The treasure consists of four silver bracelets buried about 8 inches underground.
