Here's my take on this.. Erik the Viking buried this little sampling of the type of treasure his clan had got over the years... and planned for one of his descendants to dig it up in a few hundred years and have a laugh over how much they'd advanced... and marvel over their ancestors' ingenuity to go so far and wide. Only, someone forgot to dig it up...
Can you imagine the ghost of Erik watching this and saying to Leif the Red. "ZOMFG Odin! hahahahaha... They think that's a HOARD!! *snicker* They have NO IDEA that it was just a little time capsule!"
