Just in case you didn't see this elsewhere: Warriors and women: the sex ratio of Norse migrants to eastern England up to 900 ad, in which Shane McLeod checks the sex of skeletons at Viking burial grounds by examining their bones rather than applying the cultural filter that if they've got a shield and a sword they must be male, and adjusts history substantially.

if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and
more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave
such ridicule in place.
