DESCRIPTION:In modern times Vikings have captured the popular imagination\
 , but what made someone a ‘viking’ in the early medieval period? Were 
 all Scandinavians vikings and were all vikings Scandinavians? My PhD resea
 rch focuses on two Scandinavian settlements in Britain and Ireland—the e
 arldom of Orkney and the town of Dublin—both established quite early in 
 the period of Viking activity in the region. I am seeking to establish how
  ‘Scandinavian’ these settlements remained after centuries of intermar
 riage\, trade and alliances with the local surrounding population.\n
