Welcome to the Within The Viking Age Compendium. This is where you can will find our current and previous ongoing research regarding into the material culture of Viking Age Britain. The Compendium details the kinds of material items that could have been seen being and clothing worn or used by the people both living in or possibly visiting Britain between 800AD 800 and 1100AD. Currently our concentration is on [[Wargear]], [[Clothing]] and [[Jewellery]]. Going forwards we hope to also add articles on Viking Age crafts as well as everyday items found in the home.<br>
<br>
 The articles found here are largely works in progress and so we have rated them on a scale out of 5 with [[Completion Rating|1 star]] being a planned article for the future and [[Completion Rating|5 stars]] being an article completed to the best of our current knowledge. If you are aware of any information that we have missed or any errors we have made, please feel free to contact us at [mailto:info@vikingage.org info@vikingage.org]. <br><br>The Compendium is divided into two main areas. The first is a collection of Articles, some more finished than others. The Articles present information from finds, art and literature as well as a discussion.<br><br>The second area is our Catalogue of data. Here you will find lists of finds and items. We have attempted to include web links and bibliography information for every item to assist with your own research.<br>

The second area is our Catalogues. Here you will find lists of finds and locations. We have attempted to include web links and bibliography information for every item to assist with your own research.<br>
