Vikings
Those who lived in Scandinavia in the Viking Age were mostly peaceful. They traded with their neighbors or with other countries. Many were farmers or craftsmen. In the exhibition there are actually some weapons, but there are also thousands of objects that give a different image of the Vikings. The articles talk about how people handled their homes and their jobs, trade, thoughts and family. But some helmets with horns, there is not.
Mother Treat traveled a runestone in Uppland of his son, a powerful trade woman buried at Björkö in Lake Mälaren, and a big farmer from Dalarna counted his wealth in iron. You meet them in the exhibition "Vikings". The time between about 800 and 1050 is the most famous period in Scandinavian prehistory, Viking Age. The stories of the Viking raids of ships are famous, as well as those of the Vikings pillage and trade. In our time, the entire population during the period, both peaceful travel trade families colonizers and the peasant population, called the Vikings, although the word really only describing the small group that went out in the 'Viking' and trading and looting. For most Scandinavians were farm lands where they lived life center. The Viking Age was still a time of transition and contacts with the outside world changed the whole society fundamentally. The trade took off, it shows great treasure finds from the Vårby in Huddinge, Södermanland. The tax contained jewelry and costume details from both Russia and the Muslim Empire, the Caliphate. Some of the fittings have belonged to an oriental equestrian rock. You can see the objects in the beginning of the exhibition. The first town-like communities were established, for example, Birka on the island Björkö in Mälaren or Uppåkra outside Lund. In the middle of the exhibition is a model of Birka (picture p. 44). The colonization of new agricultural lands took place both inside and outside Scandinavia. A new religion was introduced, Christianity, and the struggle between the prehistoric and Asatru continued throughout the period.
