    Charles — Doc Dave Sigurslid, my former partner in writing our former Campfire Fartologer column, is Norsky and “reads it fluently” in his words. (His son’s name is Haakon.) He gave me a quick summary of the story and I easily could have misunderstood him. He also mentioned–and I don’t think this was from the article but from him having been there and familiar with the area–that this had been a Viking stronghold and they made big tanged points like that from slag iron, so in his view it’s possible they could be of Viking origins.
