Title
A name given to the resource
Blog post: Women - Key figures in medieval Sweden
Description
An account of the resource
In one section of the Swedish History Museum in Stockholm representing the Viking period, Swedish women are represented in one individual display case by a great number of keys found in various archaeological digs. Keys are everyday and familiar objects, that any of us carry with us or use as a part of our daily routines. These seemingly mundane objects carried a lot more meaning during the Viking Age as the title of the display case already suggests: “The woman - a key person.”

Title
A name given to the resource
Hurstwic: Building a Viking-age Turf House
Description
An account of the resource
Hurstwic recently traveled to Iceland to shoot our next film, “The Final Battle of Grettir the Strong”. The saga hero Grettir, and his brother Illugi, lived on the remote island of Drangey about 1000 years ago. There, they were attacked and killed by an overwhelming force led by Þorbjörn öngull. Our film, due to be released in spring 2017, brings that battle to life on the screen, shot on the location of the historical battle.
In order to make our film, we needed to construct a replica of the Viking-age turf house that Grettir and Illugi lived in on Drangey. This short video shows how we made the house.
We thank the organizations who provided help and support for this project

St Kilda Archipelago, Scotland (Boreray)
Subject
The topic of the resource
Place name
Description
An account of the resource
St Kilda is an isolated archipelago west of the Hebridies. The etymology of St Kilda is debated, but it does not refer to a saint - the most likely origin is from Old Norse: either a corruption of Skildir ('shield') or from the Norse name for a spring on the island, Childa. The smaller island Soay is certainly from Norse Seyðoy, meaning 'sheep island', whilst the main island Hirta may be derived from Norse Hirt ('shepherd'). The name of the uninhabited island Boreray probably derives from ON borg, meaning 'fort island' (see also Boreray in the Hebrides).
