Fossilized piece of human dung from Viking-era York in England
The Lloyds Bank coprolite is a large coprolite, or fossilised specimen of human faeces, recovered by the York Archaeological Trust while excavating the settlement of Jórvík (present-day York) in northern England. The specimen was dated around the 9th century and offers insight into the dietary practices of the Anglo-Scandinavians during this period.
