About thirty individuals exhumed in Sweden—mostly in Gotland—and Denmark exhibit perfectly regular horizontal grooves on their upper incisors, one to three per tooth, carved with a file with such care that it rules out an accident. Almost all were adult men. The operation, performed on living enamel, must have been long and unpleasant. No one knows why: a mark of status, a sign of recognition between merchants, a rite of passage, or a desire to impress. Hypotheses abound, but certainty is lacking. What is certain is that these men chose to have their teeth filed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e📖 \u003cstrong\u003eTo learn more:\u003c\/strong\u003e Discover \u003ca href=\"\/en\/blogs\/news\/berserkers-guerriers-fous-odin-vikings\" title=\"Berserkers: Odin's Mad Viking Warriors\"\u003eour feature on berserkers\u003c\/a\u003e and Nordic intimidation practices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e♦ Complete Your Viking Collection\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiscover other Viking accessories you might like:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/boucles-oreilles-crane-yeux-rouges-puces-acier\" title=\"Red-Eyed Skull Earrings — Steel Studs\"\u003eRed-Eyed Skull Earrings — Steel Studs\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/boucles-oreilles-crane-taureau-puces-acier\" title=\"Bull Skull Earrings — Steel Studs\"\u003eBull Skull Earrings — Steel Studs\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/boucles-oreilles-cranes-os-croises-puces-montantes-acier\" title=\"Skull and Crossbones Earrings — Rising Studs\"\u003eSkull and Crossbones Earrings — Rising Studs\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Le Comptoir Viking","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57869529612670,"sku":"LCV-BO-063-1","price":19.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/0569\/8430\/files\/boucles-oreilles-crane-zircon-rouge-puces-acier-ambiance.jpg?v=1787172204","url":"https:\/\/www.le-comptoir-viking.fr\/en\/products\/boucles-oreilles-crane-zircon-rouge-puces-acier","provider":"Le Comptoir Viking","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
