About This Item
Denmark 2005. This book gives a thorough history of Aros and the viking world. The Vikings were Scandinavians-Swedes, Norwegians, and Danes. They spoke different dialects of Old Norse and understood each other wihtout much difficulty. The word Viking is usually associated with piracy and looting, but the activities of the Vikings were far more comprehensive.Finds and research are presently throwing still more light on the shadowy era when the prehistory of Denmark becomes history proper. The Viking Town of Aros (Aarhus), is rooted in the late 8th century. During this very early Viking Age, a pattern begins to emerge: a trading place, eventually surrounded by a rampart and a moat. Aros is not just a place for taking shelter, the town on the river mouth by the large bay becomes a commercial centre and part of the national defense system. , English, Year2005, Illust.
