- Double-weighted statement
- This output is interdisciplinary covering archaeological evidence, various kinds of written sources (sagas, eddic poetry, laws, court docs etc), place names and map study. The integrated use of poetry with archaeology is a new methodology developed by the author. It covers a very large geographical area, providing thorough studies of Scandinavia, Greenland, Iceland, Faroes and Scotland.
Reviews: Northern Studies 2018 (‘an excellent book’ … which has been long needed’); Medieval Archaeology 2018, 62:1 (‘highly recommended as a thought-provoking and valuable addition to any early medievalist’s bookshelf.’), Early Medieval Europe 2019, 27:3 (‘an impressive work of true scholarship’).
