Hello Michlib! Please join us at 1:00 PM, Saturday, November 30th as we welcome Ellen Green for Vikings: Fearsome Raiders & Adventurous Traders. Vikings are best known for being fearsome raiders. But they were also adventurous traders who established a vast trade network that spanned from Byzantium to Dublin to Newfoundland to Greenland. Join archaeologist Ellen Green in looking at the evidence the Vikings left in their far reaching voyages of plunder and trade. Ellen has been a frequent presenter for Baldwin. She is a PhD researcher at the University of Reading in England, specializing in human remains. Prior to her return to academia she was a field archaeologist in London for 5 years, and she has worked on sites from every period in the city's history. Ellen developed a love of archaeology through many visits to Roman ruins and castles in the UK over many vacations, which inspired a fascination with the past. She is also a big fan of Indiana Jones.
