Daaaamn! That is such a huge discovery for Scandinavia! Cant wait for follow up videos and more discoveries! Also, thank you for mentioning my channel! ❤ Would looove to see a part of a village or something that would tell us more about shield maidens and their way of life!
Another educating and entertaining video, thanks Christopher. I've just spent 5 days in Tromso where it was nice and cold and I managed to see the lights as well. Hopefully I'll get to go back but I need to save up a lot of money first :-)
I've been following this find in the news, it's super exciting and I hope they get to excavate most of it. I talked to someone who had been there and looked at the excavation of the ship and they said it was amazing! (not jealous at all...) so I hope the preservation process goes smoothly and the finds can be presented to the public soon. These videos are great Christopher, keep em coming.
Great video! Excellent information. I would love to see more artifacts unearthed that help humanize and sympathize the viking mythology. As you say, many of the more notable people from that era have been deemed as the bad guy.
Thanks Doomfruit! It's the victors who write history, and even though King Olav fell in Stiklestad his movement would become victorious. Thorir Hund was fighting to keep Norway pagan, like many others. He's a hero in his own right. I'll make a video about him at some point!
I love this!!! Thank you Norse Reign!! 💞
Thanks Anita!

Thanks! Yeah, I'm hoping to do a on location video from this project next year. It's not to far from my place.

Correction: The world's biggest longhouse in Lofoten was not 87 meters, but 83 meters (272 ft). Still huge, though!
