Description

Explore the profound changes that defined the Viking Age in Western Scandinavia. This scholarly volume examines the economic shifts that occurred as kingdoms were established and Christianity became the dominant ideological and cosmological framework. As new towns emerged, the landscape of the North underwent a significant transformation. This book focuses on the economic evolution of the region, specifically looking at how woodlands and alpine areas were used through intensive and organized resource management. By analyzing the development of domestic raw materials and the increasing standardization of goods meant for long-distance trade, the text provides a clear look at how remote rural areas became part of a strong, interconnected network. It is an essential resource for those studying the history of trade, craft, and resource adaptation in the North.
