Vikings anno 2009


A renactment group called Starfa is
studying and partly living viking life.
Here is their viking tent and fireplace
last Sunday at Torderød.


Friendly people eager to share their knowledge
and interest.
Here one lady is preparing wool by combing it.


Here is one of the reinforced holes in the viking tent.


Here another lady was sewing a viking shirt in linen,
based on a shirt found during excavations.
The shirt was made in one piece of cloth, but very
elaborate.



This group has a website in Norwegian
http://www.starfa-vikingruppe.net

They arrange two Viking Days at Roed gaard
here in Moss on Sept 26th and 27th where you
can visit with your kids.
