Sometimes a Saturday just involves getting on the bus in full viking garb because there’s no other way to realistically get to an event (unfortunately there is not a river in between me and it so I can’t just build a longship and sail that)

#anyway. garb photos likely incoming #because I haven’t got any pics of this outfit yet #viking reenactment #merry words indeed

Made a little token out of antler on the Viking fair. And it works wonderful as a whorl 😌

Also I want to make a Spinde out of bone. but boy, this will take some time...

I've found that re-enactors are much more likely to look down the camera when they know the person taking the photo, and there is sometime a percent chance of sillyness alongside it (Jorvik Viking Festival, York 2024)

#my photos #photography #photographers on tumblr #viking reenactment #jorvik viking festival #very neat for me as well its like i'm tricking them into looking at the camera #this is an 80/20 split of people who know me in this post

Reorganized my bling. These are mostly replicas of original Viking bead designs but they are from different regions. The majority fits Birka and Rus but there are quite a few others. To be historically more accurate there should be more greens and blues and less decorated beads - but I like red, and decorations. I decided to keep the assemblage this way because these beads were collected across time from places all over Europe; two were even made by an artist from the US I met in Denmark. They hold memories of travel and friendship which makes them much more valuable to me personally. I like to think that this might even be a way beads have been collected and organized for a long time. Who knows why exactly different assemblages were selected and organized the way they were in Viking times. Either way, things I have certainly kept from the originals are the variety of colors and lack of symmetry. ;D

Runestone in Ribe viking village

Inscription with translation:

Véstæinn satti stæin þannsi aft Ásvið, sun sinn, harða góðan dræng. SaR druknaði utan af Norvegi

Vestein raised this stone in memory of Asvid, his son, a very good boy, who drowned on the way back from Norway.

DaniR í Hvitingi gærði arðrfaraR í Ljósum sandi

The Danes in Hviding made furrows in the pale sand

DaniR í Rípu gørva slóð þessa lìfandi

The Danes in Ribe make these tracks come alive

Karen ok Bjarni létu gørva kumbl at mikit afl ok líf donum

Karen and Bjarne had this monument made to give the Danes power and life

EirikR rauði risti

Eric (the) Red carved

Some photos from the Abbey Tournament 2023 at the warbow display featuring myself in the blue tunic.

My bow is a 95lb @ 30 inch draw Hedeby bow

That puts me at 15lbs more than Will, and 5lbs less than Halt from Ranger's Apprentice, aiming eventually for 120lbs@ 30 inches
