Description
Article in the Independent newspaper discussing the find of a tenth-century crucifix in Denmark (the Aunslev Cross) which is very similar to one found in Sweden, and provides evidence of adoption of Christianity in Denmark at an earlier date than Harald Bluetooth's claim on the Jelling II stone to have made the Danes Christian.
