The Making of the Viking Age – The Archaeology of Maritime Scandinavia and Europe

The Viking Age (c. 750 – 1050 AD) was essentially a formative period of European history. During this time, Scandinavians were to leave their mark across Europe and beyond, and contributed to shaping the world we live in today. With their discovery and colonization of Iceland, Greenland and America the Vikings expand the borders of the known world. Archaeology shows the Viking Age as a transformation of societies within and beyond Scandinavia.

The course gives an in-depth introduction to the archaeology of Scandinavia and Northern Europe, and frames this in the perspective of an interdisciplinary field of research.
