Description

Explore the connection between myth and material culture in Scandinavia during a transformative era. This book by Routledge examines the period from the start of the post-Roman era and the European Migrations through to the arrival of Christianity. By using an interdisciplinary approach, the text investigates how written records relate to physical objects. It addresses the complex challenge of comparing archaeological evidence from the Iron Age with Old Norse texts that were recorded hundreds of years later. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of how an oral past finds its expression through material objects, bridging the gap between historical documentation and the physical remains of the Scandinavian Iron Age.
