The 2nd one talks about Viking treasure; I was reading an article about how the Vikings advised each other to avoid Scotland because the inhabitants were "savages" and spoke an unintelligible language. The only place the Northmen were welcome were the Hebridies and Shetland Islands where the people were more seafarers like the Vikings.
