Viking Dead

History Documentary hosted by Jeremy Freeston, published by UKTV in 2018 - English narration



Information
------------------------------

Welcome to a world of secret graves, mysterious death ships, newly-discovered skeletons, missing fortresses, and lost Long Ships. In this series, leading archaeologist Tim Sutherland travels to Scandinavia, Estonia, Britain and beyond to get new insights into the world of those they called the North Men - The Vikings. Sutherland follows the trail of the Vikings and tries to solve many of the legendary mysteries surrounding the warriors from the north. He is investigating gruesome raids such as the one on Lindisfarne in 793 AD and discovering ship graves off Estonia that reveal violent warrior burials.
From around 700AD to the Norman conquest of England in 1066, the Vikings of the Nordic lands raided and traded across northern, central, eastern and western Europe to create a feared and notorious empire. Now, almost two millennia after their often-terrifying reign, Yesterday uses the modern age to uncover secrets from the Viking Age. By investigating burial sites, The Viking Dead asks who the Norsemen really were, what the truth was about the raids and battles, and what every-day life in a Viking settlement entailed.

3)  The Lost Viking Fleet of Roskilde
In the middle of the 20th century, archaeologists made a spectacular discovery: During excavations off Denmark, they discovered the wreckage of five Viking ships. At the end of the 11th century, the Vikings built a system of barriers in the Danish Roskilde Fjord to protect their trading post. Ships that they deliberately sunk served as a blockade. The discoveries provide insight into Viking culture. The Viking Ship Museum in Roskilde, Denmark, houses the restored remains of five ships that were deliberately scuttled around 1070 AD. The Vikings wanted to block the shipping canal and protect the Viking town of Roskilde. An extraordinary 'lost' fleet of Viking ships are a treasure trove of information and insights into Viking life. The museum in Roskilde is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Denmark. As the discoveries were made, so did enthusiasm for the Vikings and their way of life. Nine more ships were discovered during the excavations. One of the ships is 30 meters long. The wood and craftsmanship are of the highest quality. Today, an exact reconstruction of this ship is back at sea under the name Havhingsten. The original ship had 60 rowing benches and was a typical princely longship. It was dated to around 1042 AD and, after years of restoration, was finally exhibited in the museum in Roskilde. The new discoveries inspire archaeologists, historians and the public alike to find out more about this era. Tim and the team join the quest to discover the very latest theories and findings.
