  6. Historiker Patel - Selbst ein Machtwechsel löst Europas Problem nicht

    Viktor Orbán blockiert regelmäßig EU-Entscheidungen. Die Wahl in Ungarn zeigt, wie zerbrechlich Europa ist, sagt der Historiker Kiran Klaus Patel.#Ungarn #VIKING #KiranKlausPatel #Einstimmigkeit #Blockaden

  7. 🪓🚢 The iconic silhouette of a #Viking longship is the result of a sophisticated #engineering technique known as clinker building.

    This collection from World #History Encyclopedia demonstrates the entire build process, from the first cut of a 25-meter oak #tree to the final application of pine tar and animal hair for waterproofing.

  9. I've made another update of my runestone website. It is now backed by a data file making it a lot easier to add new pages.

    I also added a few new pages, and updated some pages with new photos and texts.

    Among the new and changed pages are: Sö 338, GR 1, N A222, DR 271, U 1125, U 785, U 778, Sö 96.

    Unfortunately I also had to scale down photos as bots are wasting my resources. I'm now above the free tier for the outgoing data transfer, so I might have to start paying or they'll shut down the site.

  12. More shenanigans of Hilda and Irma. Today Hilda decided to DIY a helmet.

    Made in ink and ecocline markers from Talens.

  13. I just sent in a paper on the two runestones DR 271 Tullstorp and N A222 Ervik for the course in viking runes in Norway and Denmark. They are pretty different, one is a big standing stone with beautiful ornamental images, and the other is a small stone that is completely covered with runes.
