Viking Settlement |
||||||
 |
||||||
 |
||||||
| Typical Viking settlements were centered around the longhouse, a large barnlike building in which the family lived. Other buildings included storehouses, where grain and food supplies were kept, and workshops, where weapons and farming tools were made. Because the Vikings were skilled seafarers, many of their settlements were near water, and they used their well-constructed boats for fishing, for trade, and to raid other settlements and villages. | ||||||
