Vikings: Myth, History, and Archaeology - A Virtual Presentation

Virtual Presentation by Dr. Rich Veit, Ph.D., Monmouth University

The Vikings in popular imagination are perceived as fearsome raiders of the sea.  However, as is often the case, reality is more complicated than mythology.  The Vikings did indeed raid, but they were also explorers, traders, craftsmen, and world travelers.  This presentation introduces the Vikings and their world, the places they explored, the ships they built, and the sites they left behind.  Come join us on a voyage of adventure.

He received his B.A. from Drew University in 1990, his M.A. in Historical Archaeology from the College of William and Mary in 1991 and his Ph.D. in Anthropology from the University of Pennsylvania in 1997.
