Viking ☀️ Sunstone
"Olaf I Tryggvason was a bold leader of Vikings. He lived from approx. 960-1000AD, becoming King of Norway in 995. He unified much of Norway and Denmark. He had in his possession a magical device, a sunstone, which aided him in his endeavors according to the Sagas of St Olaf.
He like so many Vikings that came after him were able to traverse thousands of miles of open ocean in way that modern science was not able to completely understand. The evidence of their achievements is overwhelming, however the methods they used were shrouded in mystery. Sun-compasses, Shadow Boards, Currents and dead reckoning were all thought to be possibilities. There was a more fantastical option as well, the Magical Viking Sunstone.
Many have thought the myth of the sunstone was just another legend. It was a magical device that allowed the possessor to know the location of the sun, no matter how cloudy the sky was. The stone could also tell where the sun was during twilight". (source)

Viking Sunstone from the Alderney (pictured)
"In conjunction with a shadow board, you could tell which way was north. The Sunstone would be a truly powerful device in a time before magnetic compasses. Doubly valuable to a nation of seafaring warriors sailing vast distances in the often cloud covered North Sea.
Modern Science dismissed such as mere legends, of course. Right up until they discovered one in the shipwreck of the Alderney, an Elizabethian warship that sank in 1592. Although she sailed well beyond the times of the Vikings she did sail in the time before all the vagrancies of magnetic navigation were mastered. The Sunstone was found with the Navigation equipment, & is believed to have been used to correct or back up the magnetic navigation devices.
Although the sands & chemical reactions had clouded the Sunstone, they were able to determine that it was a piece of Icelandic Spar. One of the optical properties of Icelandic Spar is it actually doubles the objects passing through it." (ibid)
