Extractions: Staff William W. Fitzhugh, Director Dr. WILLIAM W. FITZHUGH, Director of the Arctic Studies Center and Curator in the Department of Anthropology, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, is a specialist in circumpolar anthropology and archeology who has spent more than twenty-five years studying and publishing on arctic peoples and cultures in northern Canada, Alaska, Siberia, and Scandinavia. His archeological and environmental research has focussed on the prehistory and paleoecology of northeastern North America, especially on the problem of Eskimo and Indian cultural development across the forest-tundra boundary in Labrador. Broader aspects of his research feature the evolution of northern maritime adaptations, cross-cultural comparative studies, and acculturation processes in the North. He has conducted field work in all areas of the arctic, including Russia, except Greenland. Recent research efforts have been directed at archeological and historical studies of the Martin Frobisher AD 1576-78 voyages and their impact on Inuit cultures of Southeastern Baffin Island, Canada and exploration of the culture history of the Russian Arctic, especially of the lower Ob River and Yamal Peninsula region of Western Siberia where oil development and economic and culture change threatens the traditional lifeways of a remarkably well-preserved reindeer herding people, the Nenets. As curator of the National Museum of Natural History collections, Fitzhugh has produced two international exhibitions, Inua: Spirit World of the Bering Sea Eskimos and Crossroads of Continents: Native Cultures of Siberia and Alaska, and is currently preparing another major exhibition, Kamuy: Spirit of the Ainu Art and Culture of Japan's Northern Native People. His public and educational activities include the production of films, including the NOVA specials, Mysteries of the Lost Red Paint People and Norse America. He served as Chairman of the Smithsonian's Department of Anthropology from 1975-80, is a Board Member of the Arctic Research Consortium of the United States, an Advisor to the Arctic Research Commission, and holds various other administrative and advisory posts.

Ancient History Of The Viking Archaeological evidence shows Viking settlements in Britain, Ireland, Iceland, greenland and even network of seafare is found in scandinavia itself. http://riri.essortment.com/ancienthistory_rgix.htm
Extractions: Ancient history of the Viking History of the ancient Vikings. The common perception of the Vikings is that of uncivilized, cruel raiders: innately violent and with no head for diplomacy. This public misconception, created in a great part by the European Christian historians of the time, is being disproved by modern archaeology. Archaeological findings give evidence of a highly organized network of trade and commerce, centered on the bustling ports of medieval Denmark, Norway and Sweden. bodyOffer(28867) Firstly, the delusion of surprise raids from unknown men of the North is a historical fallacy. The existence of the Norse people was very well known to Europeans, though Scandinavia was of little importance to the Christian heart of Europe. This deception was largely construed by Christian historians, who were, at that time, mostly men of the Church. Vikings were not only raiders and plunderers. While a strong farming economy supported them at home, they also excelled in trade and settlement of the lands they explored. In fact, Kiev and Dublin both began as Viking colonies! Most surprisingly, the Vikings were invited to settle France by the French themselves. The French King invited a Danish chieftain to settle in Normandy! So much for the Vikings being unwanted.

Extractions: Photo by Denis Finnin, AMNH. At first, the settlers of southern Iceland replicated this pastoral ideal quite closely, but by the eleventh or early twelfth century, they, along with their pigs and goats, must have used up much of the forest. This may be the main reason that pigs, which need woodlands to thrive, drop out of the archaeological record at this time, as do goats, which probably were not as efficient as sheep at turning grass into milk. The relative numbers of cattle also decline in favor of sheep, probably because cows require better quality pasture. The old expectations and practices did not die so easily, however. When Erik the Red and his contemporaries settled Greenland, they sought to establish, wherever possible, not only the modified eleventh-century Icelandic farmstead but the original Scandinavian farmstead, rich in pigs and cattle. This simply did not work over the long term. Where did these bright, ambitious, hard-working settlers go wrong?

Extractions: This course, "The Viking World and the Vinland Question," is the successor to a slightly different course I used to teach here at Harvard that focussed more strictly on the period 800 to 1100. As you will see on the syllabus, in addition to the more obvious issues associated with the Viking Age, this course looks to examine the "ongoing reinterpretation of this era in later periods. Scandinavian 151: " The Viking World and the Vinland Question Prof. Stephen Mitchell 69 Dunster Street; 5-4788 I. Description: "Reviews the historical events in northern Europe A.D. 800 to A.D. 1100, and the literary legacy that resulted from these activities; special attention paid to the development of the North Atlantic colonies, particularly those in Greenland. The evidence for 'viking' activity in the New World (e.g., the Vinland sagas, the archaeological record)- and the fabrication of such evidence (e.g., the Kensington rune stone, the 'viking' city of Norumbega)- carefully considered."

Extractions: 'tis the season... Halloween season that is. This being my favorite holiday of the year I thought you would be able to tell me if the Vikings celebrated anything like it. Were there costumes? The Vikings did not celebrate Halloween, and while they had a major celebration at near the same time of year, it did not involve costumes or masquerades. Yet we know from archaeology that they did use masks, and there is evidence to suggest that these may have been connected with a different seasonal celebration. Three annual festivals appear to have been known and celebrated throughout Viking Age Scandinavia. The Heimskringla of Icelander Snorri Sturluson records these festivals in Ynglingasaga , chapter 8, saying: Þá skyldi blóta í móti vetri til árs en að miðjum vetri blóta til gróðrar, hið þriðja að sumri. Það var sigurblót.

Extractions: Mayo's rich archaeological landscape and its attendant cultures are evidenced in the many megalithic tombs and finds of bronze and gold artifacts some dated from about 3500 years ago. Stone circles, stone alignments and standing stones indicate ritual cultures which are comparable to those in Ulster, Scotland, Wales, England, France and Iberia. The formal coming of Christianity to Ireland some 1570 years ago marked further connections with Britain and the continent and in Mayo the parallel development of Patrician and Columban Church. The Columban tradition in Mayo was marked by strong connections with Ulster, Scotland and Northumbria. Farming settlements in the form of groupings of ringforts developed around the monastic sites. With the coming of the Normans some 830 years ago there were further changes in the landscape with the establishment of estates and the medieval towns. The introduction and maintenance of large estates and landlords subsequently deeply affected rural life in the West of Ireland. This caused a dependency culture in land ownership and land use to exist that was to underlie the outcome of the Great Famine of 150 years ago. Mayo, along with other western counties, suffered great deprivations, which forced, for the more fortunate survivors, connections through emigration, to be made with North America and Australia.
