Glacial archaeologists have recently discovered the second prehistoric ski of a pair of skis at Digervarden, a mountain in central Norway. Found just five meters from where the first one was uncovered seven years earlier, the ski was radiocarbon-dated to 1,300 years ago. As global warming leads to more glacial retreat, many artifacts have surfaced and sparked the need for further archaeological research in the area.
