"Viking age"

Despite the later inscription in runes on the back of the brooch, the mention of it "evidencing power and wealth in the Viking Age" is rather misleading, as the brooch was probably made several decades before the first Viking incursions into Britain. Surely it evidences wealth and power in the pre-Viking Early Historical Period? Spiridens (talk) 19:09, 5 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
