And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

One of the oldest pieces of furniture in Sweden, Kungsårabänken, a sofa dating from the viking age (1000-1100 A.D.)
Does anyone recognize the museum that allegedly exhibits this object? Remember that Carl Sagan was convinced by the many reproductions around the world of what looked like dinosaurs that he wrote the (absurd) book, The Dragons of Eden claiming "The pervasiveness of dragon myths in the folk legends of many cultures is probably no accident." He devised an absurd explanation for this. But regardless, does anyone recognize that museum?
"Allegedly" exhibits this artifact? Really? And what's your non-ansurd explanation for the very widespread tales and depictions of dragons or dragon-like creatures?
How long did it take them to assemble it when they got home?
