Early Scandinavian forge complex
http://www.azom.com/news.asp?newsID=20202

"Even though we have only uncovered half of the area, we have already found seven forges", says Preben Rønne, the museum's project manager for the site. "This cluster suggest some kind of early industrial activity, in the sense that clearly they had large scale production."

"The forges have been dated to 0-500 AD. and the various building artefacts to 400-500 AD."

Has anyone got any more detailed information on this? It seems like a really interesting find!

Thanks,
Dustin
