This book tells the story of the Viking Age and its enduring impact through fifty carefully chosen treasures, trinkets, and finds.
The Viking Age was a transformative period of British history. From the eighth to the eleventh centuries, people from over the North Sea raided, invaded, settled, and contributed to the development of the British Isles in various ways. Here we tell the story of the Viking Age and its enduring impact through fifty carefully chosen treasures, trinkets, and finds; everything from the mundane to the magnificent, from the tiniest trading weight to the most elaborate brooch.In this book, the incredible work of the Portable Antiquities Scheme and countless metal detectorists is put on display to analyse and assess the impact of the Vikings amid an ever-changing world. What makes an object ‘Viking’ will be put to the test, as the narrative moves from first contact to lasting legacy, spanning a period of over a thousand years of North and Irish Sea history.
