The Roots of the Vikings - Our Maps in a Book About Scandinavian History
A little over a year ago, we wrote about Norwegian historian and DNA researcher Sturla Ellingvåg and how he uses our river basin maps in his work on Viking history. We're happy to share the next chapter of that story.
Sturla's book, written together with Wolfgang Wee, has now been published in English under the title The Roots of the Vikings. Originally released in Norwegian as 12,000 år med norsk historie, it's an exciting journey through 12,000 years of Norwegian history, and our maps are part of it.
We recently received our complimentary copy from Sturla himself, here's a sneak peek of how our maps help put things in context:


If you're curious about Viking history, Scandinavian geography, or just love a richly illustrated history book, The Roots of the Vikings is well worth a try.
We're looking forward to many more years of collaboration with Sturla.
