Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This book is a social, political and economic history of the 1200 years during which the tribal societies of Northern Europe evolved into the earliest Viking states. It offers an analysis and interpretation of the rich archaeological record and of the most recent results of environmental research. The book opens with a consideration of burials and hoards, and of the rituals that can be reconstructed from them. The author isolates successive periods of social transformation that were marked by changes in the use of ritual as a vehicle for both change and its consolidation. She describes the social and political geography of the region, and traces the gradual move from tribal-based military and tributary relations towards the central organization of warfare and tribute. Before the end of the period the North could wield a formidable military force within and beyond the region, which had acted to overshadow earlier village loyalties. Dr Hedeager concludes with an analysis of the ways in which social transformation is revealed and expressed by changes in settlements and in their economic relations with the world beyond. She shows that, by the end of the 7th century, the economic, political and military structures of the archaic states of northern Europe were already clearly evident.

Paperback. Condition: New. Iron Age Myth and Materiality: an Archaeology of Scandinavia AD 400-1000 considers the relationship between myth and materiality in Scandinavia from the beginning of the post-Roman era and the European Migrations up until the coming of Christianity. It pursues an interdisciplinary interpretation of text and material culture and examines how the documentation of an oral past relates to its material embodiment. While the material evidence is from the Iron Age, most Old Norse texts were written down in the thirteenth century or even later. With a time lag of 300 to 900 years from the archaeological evidence, the textual material has until recently been ruled out as a usable source for any study of the pagan past. However, Hedeager argues that this is true regarding any study of a society's short-term history, but it should not be the crucial requirement for defining the sources relevant for studying long-term structures of the longue durée, or their potential contributions to a theoretical understanding of cultural changes and transformation. In Iron Age Scandinavia we are dealing with persistent and slow-changing structures of worldviews and ideologies over a wavelength of nearly a millennium. Furthermore, iconography can often date the arrival of new mythical themes anchoring written narratives in a much older archaeological context.Old Norse myths are explored with particular attention to one of the central mythical narratives of the Old Norse canon, the mythic cycle of Odin, king of the Norse pantheon. In addition, contemporaneous historical sources from late Antiquity and the early European Middle Age - the narratives of Jordanes, Gregory of Tours, and Paul the Deacon in particular - will be explored. No other study provides such a broad ranging and authoritative study of the relationship of myth to the archaeology of Scandinavia.…
