Vikings were seafaring people originally from Scandinavia (present-day Denmark, Norway, and Sweden), who from the late 8th to the late 11th centuries raided, pirated, traded and settled throughout parts of Europe...

Fantastic! The only thing missing is a homemade tiramisu and friends. Well done, professor!

All you have to do is come visit!

I am one of the many volunteers building a copy of Klåstadskipet near Olso, Norway. Would you like to come and visit? . We are not funded as a research project, so some of our tools are not authentic, but it has been a wonderful experience, both practically and in terms of learning about the history of the period. I have filmed a bit of the work we do for publishing on youtube, if you can't make it to the building site. Great video, all the best, Lucas.

This sounds very interesting! I would love to see something of this build. I may well be in Scandinavia in August for excavations. Perhaps I could visit then. Thank you!

Por alguna razón, KZfaq no siempre traduce a otro idioma durante una transmisión en vivo. Pero después del estreno, ¡todo funciona perfectamente!

Thank you for another wonderful video. They just get better and better. I’m certainly glad to see you came through the recent storm unscathed. How would you characterize the Draken Harald Hårfagre at Mystic Seaport in terms of its historical accuracy? Somewhere I read or heard that it sustained some damage on its voyage here and put in at Shetland in Scotland for repairs. While watching the “Shetland” TV series, I recall seeing a Viking style ship in the town harbor. Could it have been Mystic’s, or was it just something to interest the tourists? Best wishes.

Thank you for the kind message! I have never been aboard her, so can’t really comment. I believe she has engine and therefore can’t be behaving at sea as a real ship would. I see to know the gentleman who managed her years ago and he was very careful to point out that she is designed to give the impression of a Viking ship, rather than to be a perfect replica of one.

Please! Another episode. So informative and interesting! Would love to hear of some good resources (books and such) to learn more. Thank you for you time and efforts!

@kroumbatchvarov-archaeologist 7 ай бұрын

Thank you so much for watching! Another two are on the way, actually. Resources. Well, besides the ones mentioned in the video, the best are probably two books published by Roskilde Biking Museum. One is on the Skuldelev ships themselves and one is broader, looking at different Norse sites.

I love the touch of salty humor you put in your videos from time to time, it really shows the passion you put in your work! Also I would like to add, if the Greeks and Romans knew and had methods to geometrically construct their ships, how and why would the Vikings not had their own and have everything done by eye? Sounds like some people are quite misinformed on what they are writing about.

@kroumbatchvarov-archaeologist 7 ай бұрын

By now the indirect evidence that ships were designed and there were ways to control shape is overwhelming. The great Dick Steffy was working exactly on this topic when he passed away.

@pitanpainter2140 7 ай бұрын

Thank-you for this. Don't let the clock watcher stop you talking if you have more to say - I would like to hear more about a range of vessels, Norse or otherwise.

Thank you very much for watching and the kind words! Ah, but when it is the camera man, producer, editor and director (all rolled in one person) who are gesticulating that it’s time for you to end the talk, it is a bit harder to ignore them! Especially when they live in your home and you are married to them :-)

It'd be great if we had more remains and literature on old ships. Imagine if someone wrote manuals for these ships that survived today, imagine if some village continued the building tradition, etc.

@kroumbatchvarov-archaeologist 7 ай бұрын

We do have quite a lot of remains. Just it takes time to excavate, document and publish them. Funding is always a challenge. States if they fund at all, fund mostly registration of sites; not their study. So it is mostly academics who do it and they have limited time and resources. Probably one of the best and most productive is the Institute of Nautical Archaeology, though there others, too. Then for each month of field work, there are at least two years of library research before it is published.
