Archeologists in Norway have uncovered what they believe is a buried Viking boat with bones in it, leading them to believe it could be the remnants of a Viking boat grave.

While working on another dig in the center of Trondheim, archeologists at the Norwegian Institute for Cultural Heritage Research (NIKU) noticed a mound of earth, and when they opened it up, they discovered the shape of a boat and two long bones that are being tested to see if they are human.
