Thanks for such a thorough reply. Im definitely not wealthy enough to start funding excavations and surveyors but if i ever am id love to fund such pursuits. In regards to the morality of it id say that it is quite honorable for the deceased to truly live on forever if their* affects are displayed in a museum. But, i suppose wed be ripping them from an eternal rest and separating them from all of their beloved goods, horses and servants if we are to believe their religions are true.

Perhaps my knowledge is incorrect but if the Jutes, Swedish Vendel people and Danes got around as much as it seems we could likely learn a lot about the rest of the world of their time based on what they are buried with. With their huge trade networks i feel like there is a lot of potential to bring more light to the dark ages.

This is, of course, the hopes and dreams of an un-educated layman lol. So apologies for any inaccuracies.
