Vikings

An exciting blockbuster exhibition opens this week at the British Museum.

At the centre of the exhibition will be a 37 metre long warship, the largest ever found.



It will also be the first exhibition at the British Museum to make use of the new 'Sainsbury Exhibition Rooms' newly built to house temporary exhibitions.

Here's a great recent article on why Viking culture still elicits such a strong response from us, from The Independent.
