Listen for free

View show details

In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the ship technology that made the Viking Age possible, from the earliest known clinker-built vessels to the iconic longship. They discuss the Oseberg and Gokstad ships, the use of square sails and oars, and the navigation techniques that allowed Vikings to cross the North Sea and raid deep into European rivers. They also touch on the evolution of ship design, the role of ships in Norse culture, and how these vessels enabled the expansion that Ragnar Lothbrok and his contemporaries led. Listeners will learn about terms like knarr, langskip, and snekke, and how the ship was both a tool of war and a symbol of identity. #RagnarLothbrok #VikingShips #VikingAge #OsebergShip #GokstadShip #Longship #Knarr #ClinkerBuilt #ShipTechnology #Navigation #NorthSea #NorseCulture #Skuldelev #Roskilde #VikingHistory #FexingoHistory #NorthernEurope #History Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
