'The Repton Giant', set of beads from the burial in Derbyshire

Based on the find on display in the Derby Museum, the 'Repton Giant' burial is believed to be that of Ivar the Boneless.
The bodies of 249 members of the Great Heathen Army were found near Repton, as well as the individual burial of a man, 6' tall, possibly in his mid to late 30s, who died of serious injuries.
There is a small Thor's hammer which was found with the body. You can buy the beads separately, or as a set with a handmade pewter hammeror a cast bronze hammer..
