    My cat's name is Hrothgar, so when you spoke about Beowulf he perked up and trotted to the screen to see who called him

      Literally same lol. My family are descendants of Ragnar, my mom always told me stories that I wish I had paid more attention to. My friend bought me AC Valhalla for ps5 for Easter and I am now obsessed with this stuff lol

    Sale is the old English version and is found only in placenames now. Hrothgar is the old English version of the Norman French, Roger. Both from the Germanic original. Saga is found in English as the word, ‘saw., still used as an archaism today.
    The English House of Lords is divided between lords temporal and lords spiritual, like the division of this hall. Once upon a time, the Palace of Westminster had the king and his nobles and clergy beside him. What eventually evolved into the kings bench.
    Be well 😊

    the mead hall was simply replaced with the Pub. They served the same purposes for a millennia after the "fall" of the mead hall culture. Gathering, drinking, celebrating, political alliance forming, all took place in the local village pub.

      My great grandfather came from Sweden with his brother in 1870 and I have traced our ancestors all the way to the Viking era. On bucket list to visit Sweden!

    Excellent video and information. Apparently some of the viewers aren't impressed, but I think you did a good job in the presentation. More video of the buildings' interior would be nice in the future, but that will have to be later. Skal from Vinland!

      They do this on purpose because what is done in the hall is very special.

    Flott og informativ film!
    Er det mon tro tilfeldig at flere av gravhaugene i parken er omgitt av mjødurt, eller kan dette ha vokst der helt siden Viking-tiden - sånn at de gravlagte alltid skal ha tilgang på mjød?

    • @midgardvikingsenter7646
      @midgardvikingsenter7646  Před 4 lety +3

      Det var en interessant observasjon :) Det er dessverre vanskelig å vite hvor lenge mjødurten har vokst rundt haugene, men det gjør sikkert de som er gravlagt der glade :)

    After 3 + mins of her talking about the hall they go inside and she keeps talking but instead of moving the camera around
    They just focus on her.

    • @leiffenrir9273

      Yes because what’s done in the hall is very special and you have to be there to know what is going on.

    Yes. I agree. To much talk. A bit 2 clinical! Not enough visual. Back in the good 'ol days there would have been less talk & more debauchery! Bring back the good 'ol days 🙂

    • @leiffenrir9273
      @leiffenrir9273 Před 2 lety +1

      No this is because they don’t show what’s going on inside or what it looks like because it’s very special and secretive.
