STRANGE BUT TRUE: THE WEIRD HISTORY OF THE VIKINGS: Runic Graffiti, Berserkers, Funeral Ships, Filed Teeth, Strange Gods, and Other Bizarre Stories ... World (SparkTrail Strange But True, Band 31) - Softcover
Buch 31 von 63: SparkTrail Strange But True
Inhaltsangabe
The Vikings were not just horned-helmeted raiders charging out of the fog. In fact, the horned helmets are mostly nonsense—and the real story is far stranger.
STRANGE BUT TRUE: THE WEIRD HISTORY OF THE VIKINGS dives into the bizarre, brutal, funny, and often unbelievable world of the Norse. From runic graffiti scratched into ancient buildings and warriors who filed grooves into their teeth to berserkers, funeral ships, strange gods, seeresses, slave markets, royal feuds, and voyages that reached North America centuries before Columbus, this book uncovers the Viking Age beyond the usual legends.
Discover how Vikings really lived, what they ate, how often they bathed, why combs show up everywhere in Viking archaeology, how longships changed Europe, what happened inside smoky longhouses, why insults could start blood feuds, and how Scandinavian traders ended up carrying Arabic silver, serving Byzantine emperors, and leaving their names carved into famous monuments.
Along the way, you’ll meet Odin, Thor, Loki, shieldmaidens, ambitious kings, unlucky monks, hard-drinking warriors, stubborn farmers, clever merchants, and enough questionable decisions to keep historians busy for another thousand years.
Written in the funny, cheeky style of the Strange But True series, this is history without the dry textbook treatment.
Perfect for readers who enjoy weird history, Viking history, Norse mythology, ancient mysteries, bizarre historical facts, archaeology, and true stories that sound completely made up.
Because the Vikings were dangerous, complicated, surprisingly well groomed—and much weirder than the movies.
