Two skeletons lie in a showcase at The National Museum of Denmark Wednesday, June 9, 2021 in Copenhagen. - The skeleton of a Viking-era man in his 50s from central Denmark will be reunited in the exhibition 'Join the vikings - the raid' later this month with a relative who was killed in England more than 1, 000 years ago in a massacre when an English king ordered the slaying of dozens of Danish settlers. A museum said Wednesday that archaeologists and scientists on both sides of the North Sea have established the relation between the men thanks to DNA technology and they were likely either half-brothers or nephew and uncle. One was a farmer in Denmark, the other likely a raider. (Photo by Ida Marie Odgaard / Ritzau Scanpix / AFP) / Denmark OUT
