Editing Olaf Guthfrithson (section)

==Burial==
In 2005, a skeleton was excavated in an archaeological dig at [[Auldhame]], [[East Lothian]]. Grave goods including a belt similar to others known to have been worn in Viking-age Ireland indicate that the skeleton belonged to a high-status individual. The presence of such goods, and the age of the skeleton, has led to speculation among historians and archaeologists that the remains could be those of Olaf.<ref name="HD">{{cite news|title=Skeleton discovered may be Viking King Olaf Guthfrithsson|url=http://www.heritagedaily.com/2014/05/skeleton-discovered-may-be-viking-king-olaf-guthfrithsson/103483|access-date=14 May 2016|publisher=Heritage Daily|date=30 May 2014}}</ref> Olaf is known to have conducted raids on Auldhame and Tyninghame shortly before his death in 941.<ref>{{cite news|title=East Lothian skeleton may be 10th Century Irish Viking king|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-edinburgh-east-fife-27633853|access-date=14 May 2016|publisher=BBC News|date=30 May 2014}}</ref> Auldhame and Tyninghame were two of several local churches dedicated to [[Baldred of Tyninghame|Saint Baldred]]. According to [[Alex Woolf]], although the skeleton cannot be definitively identified with Olaf, the date and nature of the burial make it very likely the deceased individual died as a consequence of Olaf's attacks in the area in 941. Woolf has also suggested that "there is a strong likelihood that the king’s followers hoped that by burying him in the saint’s cemetery he might have benefitted from some sort of post-mortem penance".<ref name="HD"/>
