Super cool.

Love this!!

Stina Hogkvist deemed it HISTORICAL and thus ventured to change the course of history by removing a painting.

Nice 👍🙂

This video was so interesting. Especially the correlation with the Black Death and it’s influence on Christianity and it’s sacred buildings is highly interesting and was new to me. I can imagine that apart from simply missing the people to maintain them, people just lost their faith and felt abandoned by God? So why care for his houses anymore. Thank you very much.

What I would not give to be here.

I bought a board at the Wisby museum in Gotland a couple of days ago. This one doesn't have the 4 castle squares so the king just need to reach the end of the map to win, which one would think would be easier but we played it maybe 20 times on the boat home and it was still pretty even, I think in the end the king still lost more then he won. I check around and there are a bunch of different rules, it might be that the towers are best when you have a larger board since it gets too easy for the king to get to the sides then but it might also be that the rules changed depending on the time or area it was played in. It is a fun game, faster then chess (usually) and easier to learn the rules but you have the same "easy to learn, hard to master" factor in it. The board I bought is 9x9 squares but I think I will experiment and see if I can't copy a historical board or 2 that is larger and use different rulesets. Thanks for the vid. :)

Hi! I have a question: from the first eight moves, on my turn, can I place two attackers on each side of the corner to prevent the king access to them..?

I uploaded my dna through my true ancestry and found, that some of my ancestor’s were among the victims.

Thanks for the video 👍🏻👍🏻

🤘❤️‍🔥

Thank you

battle board.... ?

I'm not suprised. The Furious and Wise Wizard has been known among Germanic speaking peoples since the days of old Rome before Christ.

I love watching youtube captions try to transcribe hnefatafl

great explanation of the game!

It’s not a church burning, it’s a Norwegian bonfire.

Very interesting video. Kamban would translate as Cam Bàn. Cam means curved, or bent, and bàn would usually mean fair or white haired. The reason Irish/Scottish Gaels landed on the Faeroes was because of the tradition of voluntary isolation for religious purposes. The settlers were priests, hence the number of Paparsvik, etc, on the Faeroes. Iceland is the same. The first Norse settlers there found Gaelic priests already there. The Vestmannaeyr were named after Gaelic monks; the Vestmann being a Gael or Irishman. Even more fascinating, perhaps, is the Eyrbyggja Saga which mentions, amongst other things, the experience of Norse trader, Gudleif Gudlaugsson who was blown off course while sailing from Ireland to Iceland, and was believed to have landed in what is now Canada/US. He and his crew were apprehended by a people who he described as being Gaelic speakers. When allowed to leave, they travelled east to Iceland.

By far the most neutral take I've seen on this topic so far. Nine times out of ten you'll get an emotive response from one side or the other but you kept a level head and evaluated the evidence and came to a balanced conclusion without blaming anyone, it's a nice change of pace from other videos on the topic.

My ancestors on my Mothers side comes from a tiny Town with the name "Trætten". The name Trætten means thirteen after the number of survivors after the black death.

That building will he demolished within 20 years or less. The excavations will continue 🧙‍♂️✨️⛵️🏖

My father worked on Wood Quay and he said they found a skeleton while digging a foundation, he claims the skeleton was over 7ft long but that they were told to say nothing because it would stop work and the skeleton was left in the foundation which was filled in with concrete.

I wish the younger generations would do more HOMEWORK about history

Yes, they did.

vikings perpetrated how many massacres? how many villages were burned to the ground during viking raids? how many treaties were broken by vikings, not just with their neighbors but with rome? it's difficult to find any sympathy for these people, like the aztecs they liked to kill and/or enslave everyone around them.

This game is super unbalanced depending on the set of rules its either a guaranteed win for black or a guaranteed win for white. I tested it with a computer. I was unable to find a variant which gives approximately equal chances for both players. I understand that in chess white pieces have an advantage of about 1/3 of a pawn, but still a chess game of played perfectly is either a draw or a win for white. Hnefatafl if played perfectly (computer) leaves no chance to one of the players.

Like because I love Hnefatafl, nice content and great beard ;)

Yeah hopping in pretty late - Did they ever establish any substantial "colonies" here in NA? Even Iceland wasnt really a colony until the high medieval era?

I have hosted in 3 of the stave churches Uvdal, Eidsborg and Heddal

I just got a set recently

👍 Thank you for sharing.

I find it almost impossible to win as the attacker. The game is way too easy for the defense. To make things more fair and even I think the king should only be allowed to move one space at a time.

Where did c you get your game peices?

Interesting topic! Thanks for sharing.

Disgrace hail oðinn

I play allowing the king just to move one square per turn, but he is allow to kill. However if the king moves than one square, he won’t be allowed to kill.

Yeah u cant Tattoo that deeb at bones!😁
