124. Vinland The Good - Leif Eriksson & Norse / Viking Explorations Shows the scope of the norse voyages to the New World. It offers information on Viking ships and navigation as well as Leif Eriksson. http://users.adelphia.net/~kmjviking/

The impossible is for the Dreamers of the World to Accomplish - So Always Dream BIG About 1000 years ago a bold Norse explorer reached North America. He was not the first Norseman to do so, but we remember his achievement today because his was the first recorded effort to explore part of the New World. His incredible journey took him to three distinct places. The southernmost of these, he named Vinland the Good because of its mild climate and abundant natural resources Our Mission: This site is dedicated to Leif’s adventurous spirit. It exists for several reasons: To educate about the Norse voyages and the incredible scope thereof. To stimulate thought and discussion on the subject To disprove the accepted myth that L'Anse aux Meadows was Leif’s Vinland To enlist support for further research in the field About the Site's Author: Over 20 years of research on both sides of the Atlantic stand behind my work. Being fluent in Danish and able to slog through the original texts are major assets in this study. As in all my work, I strive to be objective and fair. I am a professional writer with credits ranging from various Op-Ed articles in The New York Times to various magazines and smaller newspapers.

We could have listed them as Nordic, but 'Norse' sounds like the snorting of a giant battle stallion so we went for that. Their idea of Heaven was VALHALLA. Warriors only. You had to die in battle first and be escorted by beautiful blonde VALKYRIES. Here you could clash in battle all day long, your cleft limbs and cleavagings miraculously restored at the close of play. Then you spent all night carousing, feasting, getting roaring drunk and discussing the day's fun. "Bjorn, when you took my head off with that double-headed axe - just brilliant. I didn't see it coming at all. My blood hit the ceiling! Just wait till tomorrow though. I've got a great revenge planned." "I'll drink to that! Here, barmaid, five hundred drinking horns of Kvas please. And a packet of pork scratchings." So welcome to the Norse pantheon, which is not just Norway but the rest of Scandinavia - which includes Denmark and Sweden. The Vikings who were Swedes travelled mostly eastwards, and the Danes and Norwegians travelled mostly westwards. (The Swedes also ventured into Finland, which was not too impressed and mostly preferred its own Gods.) And Iceland came into the equation and did its own Viking things from 800 A.D.

The Sigurd Portal Contents Location History and Description Outline of the Story Photographs ... Related Links Location Hylestad, Setesdal, Norway. History and Description Carved figures in wooden panels at the sides of the entrance to a medieval stave church in Norway illustrate the story of Sigurd the dragon slayer. This tale is alluded to in Beowulf, Njal's Saga, and other ancient works, and is recited with substantial detail in the Prose Edda of Snorri Sturluson and in the thirteenth-century anonymous Icelandic works Saga of the Volsungs and Dietrich's Saga. Outline of the Story Sigurd and Regin, a master swordsmith, plan to kill the dragon Fafnir and take possession of his treasure. Sigurd positions himself in a trench beneath the dragon's trail, and stabs him from beneath when Fafnir leaves his lair for water. Regin asks Sigurd to cook the dragon's heart and give it to him to eat. While cooking the heart, Sigurd tests its doneness by putting some of its juice into his mouth with his finger. Upon thus tasting the dragon's blood, Sigurd can understand the language of the two nearby birds, who are conversing with one another as to how the treacherous Regin plans to betray Sigurd. Forewarned by the birds, Sigurd kills Regin.

134. Ousekjarr, The Vikings! of group's activities, contact information, photographs of re-enactments.......Cambridge, Englandbased group re-enacting norse rulers and Saxon serfs of 10th century Oxfordshire as well as Norman warriors of the same location in the 11th century. http://www.ousekjarr.org/

Ousekjarr is the name of the Cambridge group of The Vikings , the UK's oldest and largest Dark Age Re-enactment Society. We recreate the life and military history of the Vikings, Saxons, Celts and Normans between 800-1100AD. Our name means "brushwood island in the river Ouse", and is based on the time in the 10th Century when Cambridge was the furthest extent of the Danelaw. The city changed hands several times, leading to a mix of Danish and Saxon inhabitants who were never really sure where they stood. The group was formed in 1994 with an initial core of 3 members, and now has over 20 members, with an average turnout at major shows of about 10. The national society now has over 700 members, from Shetland to Kent, and Norwich to Anglesey. We aim to represent the warrior class of the late 10th Century, from the ruling Thegn and his household to the peasant warrior serving in the defence of his local area. At this time, the Thegn and most of his inner circle would be from a Danish background, with a few trusted Saxon men of rank. Their tenants are broadly Saxon, but with some signs of the prolonged Danish influence visible in their dress, jewelry, and customs. It was a time of great change in Cambridgeshire, with the borders of the Danelaw constantly shifting, and Danish fleets raiding around the coast of England from Cornwall and Devon to Norfolk.

FREE counter and Web statistics from sitetracker.com ABOUT THIS PICTURE Q: How many Nordic Goddesses does it take to change a light bulb? A: Um, pretty many, because, y’know, they all have different ideas about lighting and mood and stuff, and it’s well worth listening to all of ‘em. So, uh, could you send a few more in here? The women of Scandinavia. It calls to mind some lame, predictable feature in a men’s magazine, doesn’t it? But our intent here couldn’t be more removed from such prurient concerns. The column this month is devoted to the brilliant, wildly diverse and inspired female singer/songwriters of the Nordic nations. We are lucky enough to have intervews with Hanne Hukkelberg of Norway, Sofi Bonde of Sweden and Hera of Iceland. We'll be asking them about their music and their thoughts regarding their homelands. And we’ll survey selected recordings made by other women artists of the five Scandinavian countries. There’s no way to cover everyone, of course; Scandinavia is positively filled goddess ? Now THAT works. It implies grace, wisdom and the sort of alluring “otherness” I often associate with Scandinavia. Take me to task if you want on this concept, but until a better designation comes along, I’ll think of the talented Scandi women as Goddesses; just try and stop me.

137. Saga Old norse saga (related to segja, to say ) means what is said, or told . He arranges and recounts the legends of norse mythology in an entertaining http://www.cyberclip.com/Katrine/NorwayInfo/words/saga.html

Saga The Arts Saga [Old Norse saga (related to segja , "to say") means "what is said, or told". This derivation indicates the importance of oral tradition.] Sagas are prose narrative recorded in Iceland in the 12th and 13th centuries of historic or legendary figures and events of Norway and Iceland. Modern sagas would then be heroic narrative resembling the Icelandic saga. The so-called saga age was about 930 to 1050 and the sagas were written down during the period from about 1190 to 1320. One of the greatest Icelandic skaldic poets was Egill Skallagrimsson (910-990). He wrote Egils saga (c. 1220), attributed to Snorri Sturluson. After the death of two sons, he composed Sonatorrek ("Loss of Sons," or "Revenge Denied") (961). Another great Icelander was Snorri Sturluson (1179-1241), poet, historian, and chieftain, and a descendant of Egill Skallagrimsson. The sagas are classified like this: Kings' sagas ; recounting the lives of Scandinavian rulers, and reflecting the continued interest of the Icelanders in their old homeland. The earliest collections of them appeared in the period from 1200 to 1235. Morkinskinna , anonymous.

138. The Norse Study of Old norse texts is especially informative about early Germanic culture A wealth of prose sagas survives in Old norse. These employ an intricate http://www.maxwell.syr.edu/maxpages/classes/His311/Lecture Three/NorseSagas.htm

The Norse Introduction Ancient Scandinavia was dominated by speakers of North Germanic languages, including Old Norwegian, Old Swedish, Old Danish, and Old Icelandic. Scandinavians did not participate in the first wave of Germanic migrations that destroyed the Roman Empire, but in the eighth century some of them initiated a second wave of Viking invasions. The typical Viking was a landless young man who made a living as a pirate, sometimes preying on other Scandinavians as well as peoples farther south. Most Scandinavians were farmers or traders who regarded Vikings with grave suspicion, and in the early literature Vikings often come across as arrogant louts who brag too much about their exploits abroad. Contrary to popular belief, Vikings did not wear horned helmets, though some of their armor is decorated with representations of earlier Germanic warriors wearing such helmets. The term Viking invasion is sometimes used for attacks by large fleets of ships under the command of an aristocrat who would probably not have been called a Viking by his fellow Scandinavians, at least not to his face. Study of Old Norse texts is especially informative about early Germanic culture because the Scandinavians were converted to Christianity much later than the East and West Germanic peoples (around 1,000 AD). By this time, Roman Christianity was well established in Western Europe and no longer felt much threatened by the few remaining traces of pre-Christian thought. Norse mythology could be used as ornamental material in Scandinavian poetry without offense, much as pagan Greek and Roman mythology was used by the deeply religious John Milton to ornament his Christian epic, Paradise Lost.

(Illusions by Richard Bach) Merry Meet, and Welcome to The Coven of the Black Rose! Before continuing on, you might ask yourself, what is it that has brought you here today? Perhaps you are Wiccan, and in further search of knowledge and understanding of traditions different from your own. Perhaps you are Christian, and in search of understanding of a Faith, that seems so contrary to all that you believe. And Perhaps, you are simply searching for a new path to enlightenment, having found that your old path has left you wanting for deeper meaning. Regardless of your reasons for visiting our Temple, Lady Satinka and myself would like to thank you for coming. And we ask that you keep an open mind and heart towards what you find here. Blessed be Lord Damian Learning is finding out what you already know.
