An Incredibly Well-Preserved Piece of 9th-Century Viking Poop

The Atlas Obscura is one of my new favorite websites and posts like this are why:

“One paleoscatologist called the Lloyds Bank coprolite “as precious as the Crown Jewels”: An Incredibly Well-Preserved Piece of 9th-Century Viking Poop“

btw, do you know what a paleoscatologist actually is? It’s one of the top 10 unique jobs according to this website. It’s a person who checks out ancient poop.
