Finnestorp

The first discoveries at Finnestorp, a location in Västergötland, Sweden, were made in 1902 during a road construction through a wetland area.

[6] The central parts of the area have traces of wooden platforms which may have been used to access the wetland and fire pits which may have been for meals.

[6] A sixth-century gilded belt buckle found in 2002 received media attention in 2012 when the archaeologist Bengt Nordqvist interpreted it as a depiction of the god Odin.

[7] According to Nordqvist, it corresponds to a scene from the Old Norse poem Völuspá, where Odin places his eye in Mímir's well.

If the identification is accepted, it confirms that the myth existed in the Migration Period and impacts discussions about Old Norse religion.
