Romans and Vikings?
#8
On Balance I'd have to no, but then again you may consider that any sea born raiders intent on plunder, pillage and rapine are in essence "Vikings" as is generally meant today... I strongly suspect that WicingaAS or VikingrON simply meant "Man of the Salt"(or Brine)....
Just my thoughts not written in Stone... :wink:

"And the four bare walls stand on the seashore. a wreck a skeleton a monument of that instability and vicissitude to which all things human are subject. Not a dwelling within sight, and the farm labourer, and curious traveller, are the only persons that ever visit the scene where once so many thousands were congregated." T.Lewin 1867
