We write a lot about wool combs and at the markets, we explain and demonstrate how they were used. But what is the actual evidence for those tools?

Beautiful weather, nice people and more fighters than ever before at this year's HIKG.

... Ribe. If Lejre was taking a deep breath before the bigger markets, Ribe was like exhaling again, relaxing a little.

After Trelleborg came Moesgaard, of course. Moesgaard was as mixed an experience as always. Due to limited space, it can't grow in size, so it's really, really crowded.

This year we spent around ten days at Trelleborg. We also re-united with our friends Dany and Micha, with whom we spent the market at Archeon and who would from then on travel with us until Ribe, where they could only stay for a few days.

Another market we visited for the first time was the Viking Week at the Land of Legends in Lejre. The Land of Legends has what the Archeon doesn't: A lot of space.

We started this year's summer tour during Pentecost in the Netherlands at the multi-period park Archeon. A very quiet and atmospheric start. Unfortunately, the park lacked a pair of nice wool combs for demonstrating this part of textile work, but we were able to change that :-) - It was the first time we were at the Archeon (Vil being there once as a child doesn't really count...) and we liked that place, but could not help noticing that everything is quite crowded. That's because the park could not expand area-wise as much as they once wanted to, so they had to put too many periods in too little space. It's still worth the visit, though.

This list of links is a loose, incomplete, and colourful collection of sources that have helped us in one way or another. May this growing list be of help to anyone who is interested in one of the listed topics.

From time to time (but admittedly, not often enough), we update this list since some links might not work anymore or we no longer think that they are as useful as we once thought they were. Also, we decided to include free information only - that is, if you would have to create an account or, worse, pay money to get the information, we won't include it in the list.
