About this book
Description
THIS DVD is in brand new condition, still in its original shrunk wrap sealed case. Includes a booklet.
This documentary episode from the Ancient Civilizations series explores how Viking society was shaped by the design and use of their iconic longships. It focuses on the engineering, construction, and cultural importance of these vessels, showing how they enabled the Vikings to become skilled explorers, traders, and warriors.
The film examines how Viking ships—especially the fast, flexible Viking longship—were built for both speed and versatility, allowing navigation in shallow rivers as well as open seas. These technological advantages made it possible for the Vikings to travel vast distances, from Scandinavia to distant lands across Europe and beyond.
Through historical analysis and visual reconstructions, the documentary highlights:
The craftsmanship and innovation behind shipbuilding
How longships supported raids, trade, and exploration
The role of seafaring in Viking expansion and daily life
Overall, the program presents the Viking ship as the key to their success—demonstrating how these remarkable vessels powered voyages of discovery and helped shape medieval history.
