Viking ships held significant roles in religious rituals, especially in Viking ship burial ceremonies. Vikings believed that death was not the end but a journey to another world. As a vessel that could cross boundaries, the ship became a symbol of this "journey," particularly in the burials of prominent individuals.
The tapestry was one of a number of textile remains found in the Oseberg ship in 1904. Other finds included rolled-up rugs, tapestries, and curtains. Most are embroidered with mythological and battle scenes. There was no representation of the ship's owner. [3] Most of the textiles that were found within the ship were found in the burial chamber.
