Until relatively recently, archaeologists and textual scholars had the tendency to weave a largely male-dominated image of the Viking Age, dismissing or substantially downplaying women's roles in Norse society. Today, however, there is ample evidence to suggest that many of the most spectacular achievements of Viking Age Scandinavians - for instance in craftsmanship, exploration, cross-cultural trade and warfare - would not have been possible without the active involvement of women. #grimfrost Medieval Literature, Scandinavian Lifestyle, Armed Conflict, Interdisciplinary, Archeologist, World History, Nonfiction Books
