Greetings, my friend.
Pick a chair or a pillow and come sit with me at the campfire. Let me tell you about Norse Mythology and the Viking culture.
I am Skjalden, which in the Viking age was someone that told stories and entertained the local Kings and Nobles.
My plans are to create many videos about this topic, and should I be lucky and get the financial support I will explore the lands of the Vikings. And YOU will be right next to me, seeing it all through the camera.

Awesome music!! Where can I find the track???
Respect
The shamans would have.
Can you love a country or place when you’ve never been there before? This is how I feel about Denmark and Danish culture at the moment, but it’s as though I’ve been there before. Is it just because I want to go there?
Tagelharpas are not Nordic instruments and originated from the Baltic region and there is no historical evidence to vikings using it
💥1:46-1:52
Childhood was no different from today for the Vikings. Except there were no video games, no pizza, no skateboards or inline skates...
Very good video, however Volga people are Bulgars.
Well.. this is my life now.
The Lur or Näverlur (birch bark horn) is still made by artisans in Dalarna Sweden.
I believe the Vikings use hemp for all sorts of purposes ropes clothing I also believe that the healers in Norse villages understood the medicinal purposes of marijuana because there have been seeds found in Graves
I have lived in Älvdalen my whole life, and it is an incredibly kind and hospitable village. I have walked home by myself in the middle of the nights several times, and I have never felt the least bit unsafe at all. It is almost like a safe haven, where there is almost never anything bad happening.
The Vegvisir and Galdrastafir are based on Seal of Solomon magical symbols from old grimoires. It makes sense that by the 1860s, Christian and Jewish esoteric magical practices would have blended with what remained of the Norse tradition in Iceland.
Any fans of How to Train Your Dragon here?
When I, as a Swede, have an easier time understanding Norwegian, Elfdalian has to be recognized as its own language. There's a funny clip from the Swedish parliament where they're discussing this "dialect" and its potential status as a minority language. An Elfdalian politician (Peter Helander) speaks Elfdalian at the pulpit and gets a warning from the speaker that "the rules say that in the Swedish parliament we speak Swedish", where Peter Helander answers back "well, considering that the country of Sweden recognizes Elfdalian as a dialect and not a language, I'll continue to speak it".
Most of these weapons have already been used in the God of War universe as Relics for us to use as special powers,only some cursed swords,especially from the Loki's sword,Forseti's ax and sword Angrvadall have never been used Make a part 2 with others weapons and especially cursed swords and shields like and Bye!
Today I went to see Frilandsmuseet in Copenhagen. I felt extremely satisfied watching those traditional houses and farm houses. I also had a few questions on my mind about why they had beds in the walls like shelves and doors, why there were as smaller rooms in the barn area and how the women really lived in those days? This has answered all those. Im originally from India and I do see some similarities with these houses, water facility, tools used, art and things used in the house. What a nostalgic experience for me today. I just loved it
Great video. Thank you for the history lesson.
Caption could be helpful. Very interesting content 🙏🏽
Excellent job. You were very well-spoken.
🤘❤️🔥
and i have suspecioses that word "jarl" is connected to russian "viking kind of" yarilo, means "sun". kind of a bright knyaz. yarilo, yarl. same roots
what you think jarl means? or knyaz in russland etc. its a member of a kings familia, or very rare "equal" to a kings children, respectful leader of another family, that will be marryed to a jarls daughter anyway and become a member of a one family 😂 its all a one sucessfull familia
bullsht. it was a mafia of brothers and sisters familyes. oldest "father" was a king. and rest are not from family, some are good fighters or workers familyes too that lived nearby kings familia. some bad workers, some are for dirtyest work or to sell to other family of some viking as a slaves 😴 its a family, wealthy prospareing one family members
Scandinavian propaganda! salty that the anglo saxons kicked their asses so they ofcourse resort to the "they stink" slurs when in reality any Germanic tribes (including anglo saxons) took good care of their hygiene, even the celts were very clean so this notion that Scandinavians were cleaner is simply false!!
2cm = 1in 10cm = 4in Approximately.
The Saxons raided Britain from Northern Germany in the 3rd and 4th Century already. The Romans had built the Saxon Shore Fort defensive system five hundred years before the Danes and Norse started to raid those same shores in 793.
I think if you take an ax to your belt it's going to be cutting a bot more than just your belt...
Tagelharpa is not a scandinavian instrument. It is from the Baltics and Karelia. There are no records of it being used in Sweden, Norway or Denmark during the viking age. Lyran was used but definitely not a tagelharpa. Also bands like Wardruna, Heilung and Leidung does not make authentic viking music nor have they ever claimed they use it.
My roof keeps breaking near the middle
Veldig vanlig i Norge og
My family still lives in Dalarna❤
Hey Skjalden, wonder if you'd care to give your thoughts on this?: "Mauler is pro-DEI, pro Sweet Baby Inc, and is anti-white racist. Go to the video "MauLer plays God of War Ragnarök - Part 3 - "I know you, god-killer... have you come for me now?"" and sort by new comments."
it's really maddening how the same letter is pronounced differently in each word. are there even rules for that or do you have to learn each word separately?
as a dane i dont think there are many rules to it, u just have to remember how they are pronounced
WOW!! That you were in there alone with no disruptions from others, incredible. You may not have been able to share that moment with others but posting this video you have done just that, thank you for sharing the walk around!!
But the big question is are they eLvEs 🧝♀️?
"Älv" means "river" in Swedish, and the name "Älvdalen" means "the river valley", which refers to the long river that runs through the village.
ISA sounds a lot like Isis to me, and the Sun Cross could be RA 🤔- wouldn’t that be awesome?
Thank you for an informative and well-made video.
This is the only good version of the story on youtube, well done
gonna try it out, thanks for the tip!
The lyrics found in the law book sent me down a rabbit hole about silk trade during the Viking Age. Thanks so much for your work and your channel!
This is a weird video with so much misinfo amd contradiction
The kids being punished in school is like the'Welsh not' in the UK. Still happened in the 1940s 😢
Is your channel still active?
What a amazing variety of goods!
Jeg har boet 23 år i Sverige og for mig er det helt sindsygt at det ikke er anerkendt som et minoritetssprog. Det er overhovedet ikke en dialekt af Svensk. Vi har mange dialekter i Sverige og nogle af dem er meget svære at forstå men man hør at det helt i grunden er svensk, og man kan ved at lytte til at komme til at forstå hvad der bliver sagt. Det kan man ikke ved elvdalsk. Her bliver man nød til at studerer det og lære det inden man kan forstå, tale, læse og skrive det. Det er lidt som hvad tysk er for os skandinaver - at der er ord vi kan genkende men uden at have læst det så kan vi ikke forstå eller tale. En dialekt kan vi vænne os til.
About the lyric for the song mentioned; There is a Norwegian dialect where they use the term `pæl` for boots. So, the songlyric might just be about someone who dreamt about silken cloths and fine boots?
Volga Bulgaria wasn’t a part of Rus’
Would be interesting to know how tall other groups were at that time. Probably much smaller.
Is it possible (probable?) that Laugdag or 'bathing day' was originally according to the moon? Every quarter moon phase and then it got added to the 7 day week when the Danes were forcibly Christianised? As a preparation for going to Church on sunday.
