So you're a metal detectorist and you find a silver figurine at storied Lejre in Denmark. It depicts a person sitting in a high seat whose posts end in two wolves' heads. And on either arm rest sits a raven. The style is typical for about AD 900. So when you hand the thing over to the site manager…

Note for the record that while claiming to be a charitable organization, the Clauses and their associates refuse to register in the US as a 501(c).3 charity, which would presumably submit them to adequate scrutiny of where their donations go, and what amount of funds they raise, and where. Nor are they registered with the United Nations or Interpol.
