Have to say, I love this slightly more chaotic photo from our #NorseMap launch. It was a lot of fun :)

🥁This Saturday 5 September marks the official launch of the NorseMap Project and app. Not only will we be holding the event in the heart of Hiberno-Norse Cork, but we are fortunate enough to have the legendary Einar Selvik join us with what is sure to be an unforgettable performance! #MedievalSky

For example, did you know that not only there is such a thing as Viking kebab, but that it comes in a vending machine?? Ask the Icelanders, they'll know 🫔

Happy #Thorsday!

Here are a collection of recent Thor submissions on iViking...

We particularly love the Thor battle soap: because being a Viking doesn't have to mean smelling bad!

We don't bury our iViking hoard away to be found centuries later! Instead, it's all available to scroll through both in app and on our website norsemap.eu.
You could even go to the map section and look through Viking heritage location by location and they may surprise you!🗺

After a hot Norse summer of incredible finds, we are transitioning into hoard autumn 🍁

The beginning of September brought the news of the 18,5kg Rebild hoard, the largest silver hoard ever found in Denmark!

We had a blast on Saturday at the launch of the ERC-funded NorseMap Project and its iViking app, with displays from White Horse Vikings, Déise Medieval, Lakes Vikings Living History, the Eoforwic Project, & Fingal Living History, and a truly amazing performance from Einar Selvik...

Far from being constrained to museums, their popularity means they are everywhere and representations range from replicas, to souvenirs, to artwork, to bottle stoppers and so much more!

Did you know that you can upload images to the iViking app from your gallery? 🌄

Easily share pics of Viking heritage from your photo archives... like this super pic of a modern runestone (the Vasastenen) taken by user Ingski and submitted this week.
