The Vikings changed Europe forever, yet half of them have almost completely disappeared from history books - the women. Quite unjustly so, as they played an important role in the world of the Vikings and performed extraordinary deeds: Viking women commanded ships, settled colonies, took up arms and negotiated with emperors. Their traces can now be proven all the way from America to Kiev and without their biographies the period of the Vikings stays incomplete. This series gives completely new insights into a fascinating culture. Exclusive interviews with experts from around the globe draw an authentic picture of the Viking world according to the latest scientific findings. High quality recreations will lead us to the early medieval world of the Vikings and revive this fascinating, long-lost era. (Viasat)
