The Vikings

They were bloodthirsty Scandinavian warriors and fine craftsmen. From Newfoundland to the Caspian Sea they robbed and traded fine furs, jewelry, slaves or weapons: anything worth something. They opened new trade routes still used today, founded magnificent cities such as Kiev and Novgorod, and captured ancient hubs like York, Naples and Istanbul. This series follows the Vikings everywhere they went, revealing stunning new archaeological discoveries that turn Viking history on its head.
