On Friday 24 February, a new exhibition opened at the Museum of Ancient Art in Aarhus.

Studentermedhjælperne skal hjælpe Professor Rubina Raja i de kollektive forskningsprojekter "Palmyra Portræt Projektet" og "Keramik i Kontekst".

Nyt studie fastslår, at mange af de danske vikinger slog sig ned i England. Ifølge ekspert kan det hjælpe os med at forstå strømmen af flygtninge til Europa.

The Viking invasion of Britain in the ninth century may have been the result of economic migration, a study has found.

A large DNA study has received criticism from archaeologists who think that geneticists have gotten the wrong end of the stick and misunderstood the Viking occupation of England.

As many as 35,000 Danish Vikings moved to England to start a new life between 800AD and 900AD, a new study has estimated, with the researcher likening them to economic migrants today.

P1 Eftermiddag with Professor MSO Søren M. Sindbæk (interview starts at 15:02).

Der er ikke klar genetisk evidens for danske vikingers besættelse af England, konkluderer et stort DNA-studie. Konklusionen får nu hård kritik af arkæologer, som mener, at titusindvis af danske vikinger flyttede til England.

Summary of conference: Aarhus, 6th of February 2017, by PhD student Sara Ringsborg.

A large DNA study in 2015 concluded there is “no clear genetic evidence” of the Danish Viking occupation of England. But thousands of Vikings moved to England, say archaeologists.
