Viking Love Pairs: New Insights into Sexual Diversity in the Viking Age

In recent years, several Viking graves have been discovered throughout Europe where two men are found hand in hand. These findings have sparked a new debate about the sexual orientation of the Vikings.

The initial discoveries of this nature were made in the 1990s. In a grave near the Swedish town of Birka, skeletons of two men were found touching shoulders. These men, aged between 25 and 30, were equipped with weapons and jewelry indicating their high social status.

Subsequent years revealed additional discoveries, including:

2001: A grave in Norway where two men were found hand in hand. These men, aged between 20 and 30, were dressed similarly. 2002: A grave in Sweden where two men were found hand in hand. These men, aged between 30 and 40, held a sword hilt in hand. 2014: A grave in Denmark where two men were found hand in hand. These men, aged between 25 and 30, had a gold neck ring. The interpretation of these findings is not conclusive. Some scholars believe they constitute evidence of Viking homosexuality, while others argue that the men were simply friends or relatives showing unity in their final resting place.

It is crucial to note that there was no clear definition of homosexuality in the Viking Age. Viking society was complex, with a variety of sexual norms. The relationship between the men in these graves might have been perceived as platonic or romantic. Regardless of interpretation, the discoveries of Viking graves with two men holding hands are significant. They demonstrate that homosexuality was not unknown during the Viking Age, contributing to a broader understanding of historical sexual diversity.

Viking sexual norms were intricate and diverse, lacking uniform rules or regulations and varying based on region and social class.

Homosexuality was not prohibited or condemned in the Viking Age. There are indications that, in some cases, it was accepted and even celebrated. The aforementioned discoveries of Viking graves with two men hand in hand serve as examples, suggesting that homosexual relationships were acceptable for at least some Viking men. Literary references also point to homosexual relationships, such as the Icelandic Saga of Egil Skallagrimsson, which narrates that Egil, the saga's hero, had a homosexual relationship with another man.

The discoveries and literary references indicate that homosexuality was at least acceptable for some Viking men. However, it is essential to recognize the absence of a uniform definition of homosexuality in the Viking Age, with sexual norms varying based on region and social class.
