We are guilty of viewing the Vikings as bloodthirsty killers and their lust for carnage is certainly not overstated. As well as being warriors, Vikings were also skilled craftsmen and traders. You may also not be aware of the fact that the Vikings also took a great deal of pride in their appearance despite some biased contemporary reports to the contrary. At Wood Quay, combs were found amongst the artefacts suggesting that personal grooming was very much part of the Viking way of life! Another important aspect of Viking life was jewelry as it was a representation of status, wealth and power.
The wearing of lavish bangles, rings and earrings were a means of showing one’s wealth with the material used to create the jewelry an indication of where a person stood in Viking society. Those further down the societal chain wore bronze and pewter items whereas the Viking elite wore gold and silver, much like people do today!
