- Abstract:
- Poland has been recognized as important in the widespread migration of the Vikings, yet subject to little theoretical inquiry. I became particularly interested in the ways in which the Vikings in Poland understood and negotiated their world. To my knowledge, nobody has drawn together the pan-European evidence about the image of the two mythical goats of Norse god Thor in Viking-Age burial gifts’ traditions in such a manner, as I will attempt.
