"Put briefly, it seems that if you send 25 detectorists onto the land of a farm in agricultural southern Sweden for three days and keep them from moving around too much, they always find a few dirham #coins. It happens reliably regardless of previous archaeological indications on the site, and even if you find little else. This has potentially dramatic consequences for our idea of the size and geographical distribution of Scandinavia’s
dirham importation in the AD 800s and 900s." 2/2
