Where's his horns?? Obviously not a real viking. ;)

Is it just me or are there *a lot* more discoveries of viking/medieval things in the last 10 or 20 years than the previous 200?

Sir James, you're definitely spot on with that.  As more and more people become fascinated with something, be it Vikings, or what-have-you, it becomes easier for scholars, archaeologists and most importantly the universities that fund them, to go searching.  Right now, definitely Vikings are en-vogue, which isn't a bad thing.  :)
