 Where lies Ubsola - ancient Uppsala?
It is an indisputable fact that the county of Uppland holds several findings from around the 7th century, with a striking predominance for the 10th and 11th century AD that may be taken as an indication for that a kingdom was ruled from here.
In the recapitulation of Adam of Bremen (who, accidentally, never visited Sweden himself), the pagan temple is said to be placed 'in front of a large, horse shoe shaped hill', forming what is best described as a large theater scene, with the temple being set as the stage for the public to attend the ceremonies.
One possible alternate location is Köpingsvik in the county of Öland in the Baltic Sea, that not only have several remains from the 9th and 11th century, (including a church from the 9th century) but actually lies 'in a bay to the north into the Baltic Sea'.
