Zugriff:
The article focuses on excavations at Birka, an international commercial town in Sweden dating to the mid-eighth century A.D., which offers important evidence of Viking daily life. The first written mention of Birka appears in a biography of St. Ansgar, a monk traveling in the area, which offers a vivid picture of life in a small port on the fringes of the then known world. Trade and craft seem to have been the main occupations.
