They are called golden men and are as small as a fingernail. The golden men represent Asa gods or the royals of the time.
- They represent a woman and a man in nice clothes that hold each other, says archaeologist Martin Rundkvist.
How unique is this find?
- It is very unusual, before 2020 we have only found one golden man in Östergötland.
The gold miniatures were found in an audience room where those in power exercised their power, he continues.
- They probably sprinkled these around them, says Martin Rundkvist.
