"Lost Earring Leads to Ancient Viking Treasure Unearthed by Norwegian Family"

TL;DR Summary
A Norwegian family searching for a lost earring in their yard using a metal detector stumbled upon a Viking treasure buried beneath a large tree. The relics, believed to be from the Viking Age, include two bronze ornaments that were once covered in gold. The discovery confirms that people lived on the remote island of Jomfruland during that time. Archaeologists suspect that more artifacts and a Viking grave may still be buried nearby. The artifacts will be assessed for preservation, and if deemed safe, they may be left in situ rather than excavated.
