Penannular Thistle Brooch

901 AD - 950 AD

England, Europe.

Viking

One of the more elaborate finds was a penannular thistle brooch, which measures 25 cm. Such a brooch actually helped to gain Scotland its national flower. According to a legend a Viking marauder happened to step on such a pin during a nightly raid. His yelp raised the Scottish troops who succeeded in repulsing the attack. Whether the brooch is of Scottish or Irish extraction remains to be decided.
