A very cool find has been reported in Norway: a major Viking burial mound, several actually.

The site contains two monumental burial mounds, one of which contains a large stone casket. The other one is believed to contain remnants of a Viking ship and a so-called "long house," used as communal dwellings.
A Viking ship! That is so cool. If you want to see what other Viking ships look like, this site has some pictures.

There are no such things as Viking ships!!! These are long-ships or long-boats.

Well, Erik, then I suggest that you take it up with the Norwegian Viking Ship museum: http://www.khm.uio.no/english/viking_ship_museum/index.shtml
They have no problems calling these, Viking Ships.
