5 REALLY Cool Occupations During The Viking Age...

Honestly, Vikings were pretty much the same as any other medieval people – they were farmers and handymen most of the time. Most Vikings lived on a farmstead and they would have had to have been able to grow crops, tend livestock, and create all the tools they’d need to maintain their homes and animals. But that’s not all. Vikings were versatile and able to turn their hands to anything they wanted to.

Things started to change as Viking settlements became larger – if you lived in a small community, it was less likely that you’d be able to find a fun job – you had to be able to do many things from farming to fixing barns to hunting and skinning for furs. As the Viking age progressed and settlements became larger and more urban, it was easier for a people to specialise in certain trades and get known for their work. In this video, we are going to talk about five interesting occupations during the Viking age. Welcome to the Viking Vault.
