103. Sweden And The Vikings. A history of the norse/Vikings in Sweden. http://www.luth.se/luth/present/sweden/history/viking_age/Viking_age4.html

General information about Sweden... The Swedish Vikings De foro manligen fjärran efter guld och österut gåvo örnen föda De dogo söderut i Särkland. Inscription in a stone outside Gripsholms castle. While the Vikings from Norway and Denmark went hunting for new land in the west and southwest, the Vikings from present-day Sweden usually went east and south-east. There was another aspect to their business abroad. While the Danes and the Norwegians usually conquered and colonized, the Swedes traded (although they were well armed and certainly knew how to fight) and didn't seek to establish kingdoms and colonies. There were Swedes that went on voyages with the Danes and Norwegians (at that time the differences between the countries were much less than they are now), but the main stream of Swedish Vikings went eastward. They travelled much farther east than any other European people. The Swedish Vikings even travelled as far as Jerusalem (or Jorsalir as they called it), the Caspian sea, and Baghdad (they called it Särkland). Hundreds of Swedes travelled to the eastern Roman city Constantinople (or Miklagård). Many of them returned rich from their combined trading/plundering expeditions. There are more ancient English coins found in Sweden than there are in England, and over 90% of all the coins found in Europe from Baghdad and surroundings have been found in Sweden (Gotland to be precise).

THE NORSE RUNES Jodie Forrest 's Website: Alpha Lyra Consulting, and Seven Paws Press, fantasy, astrology and book sales The Runes were the letters with which the ancient Norse wrote until approximately 1000 A.D., and they can be seen carved on Runestones across Scandinavia to this day. They also had oracular, mythological or psychological import. The chief Norse god, Odin, was said to have been voluntarily wounded with a spear and hung for nine nights on the nine worlds of Norse cosmology's axle-tree, Yggdrasil, in order to obtain knowledge of the Runes' meanings and magical usesa kind of Norse shamanic initiation. For more about ancient Nordic cosmology, click here for an article by Norse storyteller and scholar Dag Rossman.

Historia gentis Langobardorum I,7-9. Excerpt from Paul of Warnfriet (Paulus "Diaconus" ) : "7: After the Vinnili [= Langobards] had emigrated from Scadinavia under the leadership of Ibor and Aion, they came to the part called Scoringa where they stayed for several years. For at that time Ambri and Assi, chiefs the Vandals, harried all the provinces in the vicinity with war, and puffed up with pride over the many victories they had won, they sent a message to the Vinnili that they should either pay taxes to the Vandals, or else make ready for war. Then Ibor and Aion agreed, on the admonition of their mother, Gambara, that it were better to defend their freedom by arms than to mar it by paying taxes. and they sent messengers to the Vandal to tell them that they would rather fight than become thralls. At that time all the Vinnili were in the flowering of youth, but only few in number, for they had made out only one third of the population of a not very large island (= Scadinavia). 8: And here the old tell a ridiculous fable, that the Vandals went to Godan (= Odin) and asked for victory over the Vinnili, and that he answered that he would give victory to the party he would see first when the sun rose.

117. NOVA Online | The Vikings | Secrets Of Norse Ships Secrets of norse Ships by Evan Hadingham For three turbulent centuries, Not surprisingly, this era, during which the norse perfected longship design, http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/vikings/ships.html

With their invention of the longship, the Vikings spurred a literal sea change in medieval European affairs. Secrets of Norse Ships by Evan Hadingham For three turbulent centuries, the glimpse of a square sail and dragon-headed prow on the horizon struck terror into the hearts of medieval Europeans. Indeed, the Viking Age, from A.D. 800-1100, was the age of the sleek, speedy longship. Without this crucial advance in ship technology, the Vikings would never have become a dominant force in medieval warfare, politics, and trade. The drekar, or dragon-headed longships, were stealthy troop-carriers. They could cross the open oceans under sail and then switch to oars for lightning-fast hit-and-run attacks on undefended towns and monasteries. Far surpassing contemporary English or Frankish vessels in lightness and efficiency, longships carried Viking raiders from northern England to north Africa. Viking expertise in naval craftsmanship soon led to the evolution of other types of ship. Among these were the knarr

William Fitzhugh, curator in the Department of Anthropology at the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History, says the Vikings were far from simply brutish barbarians in horned helmets. Who Were the Vikings? exhibit on Vikings at the Smithsonian Insitution, offers compelling insight into this new image of the Norsemen and what he perceives as their catalytic role in Europe's transformation from a feudal society to an integrated group of modern nation-states. NOVA: What must it have been like for the monks at Lindisfarne to be suddenly attacked out of the blue? Fitzhugh: For them, the attack represented the vengeance of Satan on the Christian outposts of Europe. It was a terrible event, because the monks and the church centers had set themselves up in small, fortress-like places where they could pursue their studies and writings in peace, and it was an invasion of the sanctitude of Christ and their religion. This was totally unlike anything that had happened before. There had been outlaws, but to have shiploads of brawny characters show up at your isolated, supposedly sacred center, this was the ultimate horror. NOVA: What did the Vikings actually do in these attacks?
