graves in mound no. 2. It is also certain that the man's grave, 

 discovered in the side of mound no. 4, must be of later date than 

 the orave found in the centre of the same mound. 



The excavation of the graves at Myklebostad has yielded no 

 results which materially extends our knowledge of the Viking age 

 in Norway but, as the chronological order of the graves is here 

 unusually evident, they will afford a good beginning for a further 

 classiflcation of the material preserved in the museums, and they 

 are also in other respects good and typical examples of Norwegian 

 graves of this period. 



Of the antiquities found it has been possible to figure only a 

 portion in this paper; for complete lists of the grave goods I 

 must refer to „Bergens Museums Aarbog" 1903, no. 3 p. 4 and 

 p. 21; ib. no. 14 p. 18.
