Archaeological experts estimate that the arm rings date back to 800 CE, likely to be early Viking era which approximately lasted from 793 CE to 1066 CE.
An archaeology student has unearthed seven"spectacular" Viking-era curled silver arm rings earlier this year north of Denmark's second-largest city, a Danish museum said, adding the finding has ties to Russia , Ukraine and the British Isles.
"The find emphasises that Aarhus was a central hub in the Viking world," said Kasper H Andersen, a historian at the museum which is dedicated to archaeology and ethnography. Three others are of a style commonly found in south Scandinavia, probably Denmark, at the time. The other three armlets have no ornamentation and though described by the museum"rare", they are known to be from Scandinavia and England.
