Vikings by Lewis on horseback, bookends

Viking Warriors of Lewis

In 1831, 78 chess pieces were found on the shore of the Scottish island of Lewis.
The originals are mostly carved from walrus ivory and probably originate from Trondheim (Norway), dated 1150-1200 AD.
Most of the figures can now be admired in the British Museum in London, the others are in the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh.
A warrior sits on a small horse (probably a Viking or Icelandic pony), carrying a spear on his right side and a shield on his left.

The figure is a replica modeled after the original.
