Joined Burial
In Viking tribes, when a wealthy landowner dies, his slaves would often be sacrificially killed and buried next to him. This practice is mentioned in Viking sagas and Arab chronicles. In addition, the bones showed that the slaves had a diet that was based heavily on fish, while their masters ate more meat and dairy products.
