THE VIKING SHIP
Book ID/图书代码： 12749013B65368
English Summary/英文概要： A concise, accessible and informative introduction to Viking ships
The Viking ship is one of the most iconic images of the Vikings and the longship in particular has been central to our understanding of the Viking Age. The Vikings used their shipbuilding skills to command the sea and their famous ships permitted the exploration, colonization and raids for which they are best known.
This attractive small book explores the evolution of their sea-going vessels and celebrates this outstanding feature of the Viking Age. In addition to well-known ships such as the spectacular burials from Gokstad and Oseberg in southern Norway, Viking Ships features the newly-conserved Roskilde 6 from Denmark. Measuring at over 37 metres, the longboat is the longest Viking ship to have been discovered to date and forms the core of the exhibition Vikings: life and legend to be held at the British Museum in 2014.
From Viking-Age coins, brooches and graffiti, to the use of the Viking ship on contemporary bank-notes, labelling and logos as a symbol of national and cultural identity, this book includes a surprising range of objects that have helped to shape our understanding of the Vikings and their ships.
