Die skandinavische Besiedlung auf der Isle of Man - Eine archäologische und historische Untersuchung zur frühen Wikingerzeit in der Irischen See

There are key aspects of the Viking settlement of the Isle of Man that remain unexplained: When did first contact take place? When was a permanent settlement established? Was the island conquered violently or did a peaceful settlement take place? This study uses a careful analysis of the source materials from archeological and written records to reconstruct a totally new image of the Scandinavian presence in the Irish Sea.
