Viking age authenticity and its perspective into hikes like this is a relative matter. I strive to bring mainly items that I craftes with my own hands and that can relate directly or at least be very much inspired by archeological findings from the viking age. Compromises must be made. The only items you see in this video that is NOT made by me: The backpack, Axe heads, knife blade and handle, pot and pan, firesteel (my wife made it), the clay cup/container and the bronze buttons on my kaftan. But they all are copies of Viking artefacts.
My compromises that I dont think relate to viking archeology: the backpack (although speculations might point in the direction of the Gokstad (maybe) backpack top piece), the little pot with insert for wooden handle and the leather water container. I would be happy to discuss my choise and thoughts on these compromises with you in the comments below.
I am wearing and using homemade Haithabu viking boots, needle bound socks, woolen Thorsberg (pre viking age) pants, a simple linen tunic, a woolen tunic, a kaftan plantdyed with walnut and based on Haithabu finds, a beltbag, belt and bone/antler buckle and strap end, shoulder bag based on handle findings from Haithabu, leg wraps died with walnut, wooden plate and spoon, birch bark container, shrink pot and there is more than I can mention here. You will see in the video.
The pot is a reproduction af a find from Bengstarvet, Dalarna, Sweeden from the Viking Age.
Im having a great time and a special Experience in the forest and on the sandy shore of the baltic Ocean off the east coast of Denmark. With a reenactment perspective this is a video about a Viking travelling light from one place to another through shifting forest and shore line and making himself a good hearty Meal on the way during his daytrip.
I try to make these trips and these videos as close to an authentic viking experiense for myself and the viewer and I hope you will like the content and feel inspired. Let me know in the comments below.
