Seems quite sensible actually. Grogs everywhere should approve.
Probably Vikings Monopoly. Pass Valhalla, collect 200 severed English heads.
Notice, in the illustration of where the grave goods were placed, the location of the games.
Each individual's weapons, tools, and jewelry were placed beside their arms, near the respective body. But the games were the only things placed between all three corpses.
Obviously the family played the games together in life, and were expected to continue doing so together afterward. A shared grave good.
Interesting stuff. 8)

Well, I should be buried with my board games. :P
Ugh....It looks like a Euro....
