Beschreibung
This book provides a history of slavery in Viking Age Scandinavia by examining a multitude of sources, including archaeology, runic inscriptions, Icelandic sagas, early law, DNA analysis, and place names. Viking society was characterized by different dependencies and by fluid transitions between freedom and enslavement. Thraldom surveys, in nuanced ways, the unique role of slavery in medieval Scandinavia.
