Summary
:
In this booklet, archaeologist and art historian Carin Orrling puts together the pieces of a puzzle--burial finds, valuables offered as a sacrifice, everyday objects and written testimonials. With a feeling for her subject and a rich selection of illustrations she brings out the human beings behind the Viking stereotypes. In this presentation the Viking emerges more as the bearer of a culture than as a crazed and bloodthirsty warrior going berserk.
