On See Jane Publish Today: Sail Like a Viking

by Asa Maria Bradley

The Janes picked research as our theme for the month of May and today it’s my turn on the blog. Hope on over to See Jane Publish and read about my visit to the amazing Viking Museum in Roskilde, Denmark during last summer. The museum houses five original Viking ships from the 11th century. These ships were used in a blockade in a sea channel close to Skuldelev, which is 20 km north of Roskilde (the capital of Denmark during the Viking age). During the scrimmage, the ships were purposely sunk and not excavated until 1962, when they’d disintegrated into thousands of pieces. Each timber fragment had to be conserved and then painstakingly puzzled together to recreate the vessels. Each ship is a different type and together they give a unique insight into Viking shipbuilding techniques and skills.
