Who were the Vikings?
The Vikings were a group of peoples who at the time did not see themselves as a single entity or would have called themselves that. They lived in Scandinavia and Northern Europe during the early Middle Ages. Superficially, they are known today for their raiding and seafaring activities. However, the world of the Vikings is much more than that.
They were also great farmers, craftsmen and traders. In addition, the Vikings were a very religious people and had their own beliefs and customs.
Viking clothing was an important part of their culture. It was not only of simple cut and functional, but also reflected their social status. For example, a wealthy Viking wore richer fabrics and more elaborate clothing than someone who was not so wealthy.
Viking women usually wore long dresses made of wool or linen. They often decorated their dresses with beads and other embellishments. The colors of their dresses varied depending on what materials were available to them.
