Description
Viking Age Archaeology by Richard A Hall explores the significant impact of Viking raids and settlements in 9th and 10th century Britain and Ireland. The book examines the distinctive archaeology of each phase, aspect or area of Norse influence, providing historical context for a wide range of archaeological discoveries.
These discoveries include pre-Christian burials containing weapons, tools, jewellery, metal, wood and bone artefacts, offering valuable insights into the lives of those who lived during this period. By examining these finds in detail, Hall sheds light on the complex history of Viking Age Britain and Ireland.
