"Images of the sleek keels, elegant planks, and dragon-headed prows of Viking
longships have been reproduced countless times on postcards, book covers,
souvenirs and in television shows and movies.
These vessels are, quite literally, the poster-ships for the Viking Age, which
was between around 750 and 1100 CE.
So what made these ships so special? And why were these advanced shipbuilding
techniques so crucial to the Vikings’ success?"
