The Irish monks on Shetland recorded some verses about a person called Ivar Beinlausi who travelled to England and later back to Denmark and then to the Baltics. Aka a very restless man.

I found this to be quite a good, simple, but straight forward description of historical events that happened in England in those times, according to historical records. As far as what the records show...... I am American, and a recent ancestry DNA test showed myself and my siblings that we are 38 percent Germanic and 55 percent from English and Scottish ancestry, which is a very common admixture among families where I grew up in the US. A recent data base update showed that my family has a small percentage of Danish and Swedish added to that in which we knew nothing about. I believe that this percentage of Scandinavian genes is directly due to this period in English history. Thank you for the synopsis..

You guys are great

Legend has it, when the Vikings came, they asked the locals about the name of the town and the locals, wanting to annoy them, started saying "Nottingham" every single time they met a Viking. After a while, the frustrated Vikings started answering with "Nottingham Snottingham!". And that's how the town was renamed...

Im not sure about the etymology of 'Viking' since there are (scarce) sources of memorial stones to Danes 'going to/in Viking' and dying on the trip. Its quite possible that in Old English the word would mean raider or pirate (for obvious reasons), but I am under the impression that its older

Norse does not mean, from Norway. Norse is a common term for Danes, Swedes and Norwegians. People from Norway are called Norwegians. Also, there very plenty of recorded raids before 790's. The raids of North men and Norse wolves and Danes were mentioned in the Anglo-Saxon chronicles and Frankish Annals long before. Lindisfarne was just the first time recorded they went for a power center and a christian monastery.
