Welcome to Nauti mythology podcast, I'm Daniel Farindo and the company Hans of Odi, and I'm joined in person by Dr. Mathis Nordic.

Hello everybody, we are at Midgots Bloats and we're sitting here with Tim Mancaro,

who is a PhD student at the University of Newcastle in Australia.

Yeah, yeah, I've come about the other one.

And he is also a ritual specialist who does suspension rituals and a bunch of other funky things.

So we are very happy to talk to you man.

Welcome to the show.

Thank you.

It's very, very privileged. We feel very honored to the show. Thank you, thank you. It's very very privileged to be

asked to come along. Otherwise I'd just be you know swanning around getting up to this

just so. I'm sure you'll be up to that tonight.

Absolutely.

Mites say where we're sat.

Well, yeah, so we're sitting on one of the mounds at Bora in Norway,

Southern Norway. This is one of the most awesome historical locations for Viking Age anything

that you could be at. Very sacred site, this is amazing to be here.

Yeah. Yeah, to be sat on one of the mountains where I don't know what was found in here. A ship I'm hoping.

Things, it's cool stuff I guess debt Vikings and all their stuff yes

So really really like a location for Kings like you can see the mounds they're incredibly big compared to a lot of other Viking Age

mounds that you see out there in the landscape so this was a really important location.

And I guess the one just over there, though we can't see that looks like a rock mound I guess.

Nice contrast.
