Mathias found a coin from the 800s in Munkebo. It is a rare example of a well-preserved coin featuring a face that is probably Odin on one side, and a monster on the other. It was minted in Ribe.

Vikings drank from the skulls of their enemies
Essay - Reception
People once thought that Vikings drank from the skulls of their enemies. This is a misunderstanding of <a href="https://notendur.hi.is/eybjorn/ugm/skindex/krml.html" target="_blank"><em>Krákumál</em></a> 25 where it states: 'drekkum bjór af bragði ór bjúgviðum hausa' 'drink beer at once from the curved branches of skulls'. 'Curved branches of skulls' is a kenning meaning 'a horn' but was translated by Ole Worm in <a href="https://archive.org/details/runirinrunicchar00worm" target="_blank"><em>Runir seu Danica Literatura Antiqvissima</em></a> (1651, p. 203) as: 'Sperabant Heroes se in aula Othini bibituros ex craniis eorum qvos occiderant' 'The heroes hoped to drink in Odin's hall from the skulls of those they had killed'.
