Abstract
This book contains contributions by many leading scholars in Viking studies from Ireland, Britain and Scandinavia, on diverse subjects including archaeological excavation, art historical analysis, linguistics, literature, politics, historical sources, numismatics, environmental remains, human remains and artefact studies from c.795 to 1170. Aimed both at the non-specialist and the specialist reader, this book should prove to be a landmark publication in Viking studies for years to come.
