Small Figurine Reveals How A Viking’s Hair And Beard May Have Looked
Credit: Roberto Fortuna, the National Museum
A small figurine discovered in Eastern Norway provides the most detailed depiction yet of a Viking’s hairstyle and distinctive beard from the era of Harald Bluetooth. Despite its mere three-centimeter height, the figurine is remarkably well-groomed, potentially offering the closest visual representation we have of a Norwegian man from a thousand years ago, assuming their self-portrayal is accurate.
The figurine was likely unearthed in 1796 and portrays the head and torso of a Viking with an astute expression and an elaborate hairstyle. This gaming piece was discovered in a burial mound at Fløgstad farm in Sørum village, situated approximately 30 kilometers northeast of Oslo. For over two centuries, it remained stored away in the archives of the Danish National Museum until it recently reemerged when curator Peter Pentz sought artifacts for a new Viking exhibition in Copenhagen.
