About rings
Rings are among the most personal objects that survive in the ground. Signet rings carried a seal that pressed a mark into wax, so they worked as a signature as much as jewellery. Viking-age rings and arm-rings doubled as wealth you could wear: silver and gold were cut, weighed and traded, and a ring could be payment as easily as an ornament.
