    Nicely made, but the author did not understand what the word "viking" meant to the Norse people nor their customs and practices when confronted with a situation like this. They would not have rejected a child on the basis that she wasn't "viking". And even during the Viking age, murder among the Norse was treated as a serious crime and punished severely.

    Could the Vikings have been as many cultures were and still are today, making the same decisions as by taking in the child as a family member (adopted), killing the child, or, enslaving, or selling the child? Depending on the era of the finding of the child and the sincerity/value of worth of both sides to the prisoner/survivor and human life?

But WW2 was not long ago and the Nazis cared about who was Germanic (Aryan) or not regardless of language or religion. Even if Slavs or Anglos had white skin, that didn't matter because to the Germans they were inferior and an enemy.

      @@jaysonwitting4671 That may be true, but the Nazis did classify them as racial groups. People outside of Europe may classify all Europeans as white, but Europeans themselves will differentiate each other based on region. A typical Italian will not say they are the same race as a typical Swede for example. Even in Asia, a Filipino will not say they are the same race as a Viet even though they are both Asians.

    what's with the stupid dirt on all the faces? you would never have entered a small tent and tried to draw a bow...no room, and no way to react to a possible counter. They would also not have referred to themselves as "viking". Viking is not a noun, it is a verb. There would also have been no questioning the girl because she was a "woman", particularly if she was hunting with you, or fighting in your raiding party. This was overall, clumsy and filled with modern tropes that could have easily been avoided with a tiny bit of effort.
