"textContent": "On the tenth of April, two friends asked a farmer if they could walk his field with a metal detector. \n\nThe farmer said yes. \n\nThe field, which had been quietly sitting there for a thousand years minding its own business, started beeping.\n\nIt has not really stopped since.\n\nWhat came out of the ground over the next three weeks was the largest Viking-age silver hoard ever found in Norway.\n\nAnd whoever put it there never came back.\n\nThe full piece. It is a long read and worth every minute of it.",
