Thanks for the comments about tattoos. It's telling that there was no Norse word for tattoo and they were uncommon if at all. But the art translates very nicely to modern tattoo art so there's that.

I have his book and it helped me a lot to understand the dynamic of the viking art. I improved my woodcarving a lot by understanding the shapes..thank you! I recommend

Mr. Crawford, would you consider to make a video on the subject of Hnefatafl, the viking board game? It would be interesting to hear about the archeological finds and the historical records in literature.

Great subject. IIRC some of the broches found in Denmark are so similar that they have probably been mass produced in a single location. But I guess that this is not the same at "geographical differences"

Thank you! Yes, that is exactly it. We definitely see copies of items originating from the same local workshops. But on the other hand, the characteristics of a given style is generally speaking found throughout the Nordic world.

Great to see two of our favourite creators reaching across the Atlantic to create quality content! The period before the Viking Age is such a peculiar and beautiful time. Who was the woodcarver of the Oseberg ship/cart/bed/sled? Did the women buried there like royalty weave all those complex tapestries? How is it one of the women has Middle Eastern DNA? Whats with that dope Buddha Bucket?

Thank you! Good questions. Unfortunately, I don't have good answers for them. I would guess though, that the Oseberg women didn't do the tapestries themselves. But frankly, I don't know.

Sure, just natural they would inspire one another, trade with one another. I am fascinated with this period of art. It is so clever, really sorta “witty”. If a piece was specifically made for a person, does the piece reflect that person’s life, tell a story? It certainly looks like it might, almost like a totem? I am sorry, I couldn’t get the sound up and couldn’t hear if my questions were answered.

I don't think we touched on this subject of whether items were personalised in the conversation. The overall artistic design of an object typically followed a very formalistic scheme or model. But a pendant from a workshop could probably have had added custom details like punch decorations or something similar.

Thank you. These images are so woven and sinuous: they seem to be self referential. Yet, formally balanced. Cool

Montgomery’s translation in „Two Arabic travel books“: "They are dark from the tips of their toes right up to their necks- trees, pictures, and the like." -Ibn Fadlan Baron of Sacy's translation: "From the tip of the nail (of the foot) of one of them to his neck, it is a table which represents trees and other figures" My own speculation now, the tree theyre talking about perhaps Yggdrasil?

if Hamr or ham means skin and Marki or marka means mark, if you combine the two words "Hamrmerkir" or however you spell it, would kind of mean, skin mark, like branding or tattooing, more likely branding, if you talked to a Viking guy and say "Hamr-merkir" he might get confused or have an idea what your taking about, Jackson please correct me,

Celts have knot work carved in stone that pre date Manuscripts so no one can tell who had knotwork first as a artform my guess is The Norse & Nordic Germanic & Gaulish Tribes who shared Denmark Netherlands & Germany together both took inspiration from each other same with The Scynthians when they moved to that region of Ancient Europ. So saying Norse or Vikings had the art first when both are as old as each other doesn't make sense most likely they both influenced each other in those lands

Large pale horse screen left. smaller cart with solar wheel w/ beast drawing it. People, dressed in reds - in what I presume is the center of the work - under other wagon wheels. Calin, l'as?
