Archeologists find 250-year-old tin of Swedish snus Tobacco


Archeologists have discovered a 250-year-old box of Swedish snus, still half-filled with the noxious oral tobacco mix.

“It smelled of tobacco. It was basically just snus,” Karin Lindeblad, from the consulting firm Arkeologerna, told The Local.

The box was found during the excavation of the old inner harbour in the Swedish city of Norrköping, 160km south of Stockholm.
