For almost three hundred years, the Vikings were the most exciting and influential force in Europe and beyond; wherever they went they took their beliefs in the old gods and it was their poets who forged the myths in the earliest versions that have come down to us. The word 'Viking' refers collectively to the Danes, Norwegians and Swedes, and the 'Viking Age' describes the period 780-1070 during which the Norsemen made a remarkable three-prong thrust south, east and west.
