Vikings - Behind the wall

Throughout the ages, linguists, archaeologists, and historians have shaped our understanding of the Norse people and the Vikings - an established interpretation that few have been able to challenge. Their readings of the sagas and chronicles have stood as unquestioned truths, and any new approach or reinterpretation has been met with skepticism and resistance. From the outside, it appears as if these scholars have built an impenetrable wall.

This book aims to break through that wall and challenge long-held assumptions. By drawing on both sagas and chronicles - sources that have preserved key historical and cultural events - you gain insight into the society, mindset, and values of the time.
