The subject of the first Viking attack on Britain is very dear to Englishmen, and there are books and movies on this historical event. Naturally, the stone slabs at Fife, U.K. which, for a long time, have been held by archaeologists as dating back to the first Viking settlement of the eight-century have been an object of curiosity and tourism. Imagine the shock caused by the latest findings that the slabs are really the remnants of a 1939 structure, the patio of a villa.
