The Vikings in Brittany

This work was published simultaneously as "The Vikings in Brittany" by Neil S. Price (Viking Society for Northern Research, University College London, 1989) and as "Saga-Book" XXII 6 (1989). Consequently, there is double pagination: pp. 1–122 for the former, pp. 319–440 for the latter. Neil Price is an English archaeologist specialising in the study of Viking Age Scandinavia and the archaeology of shamanism. He is currently a professor in the Department of Archaeology and Ancient History at Uppsala University, Sweden. Born in south-west London, Price went on to gain a BA in Archaeology at the University of London, before writing his first book, "The Vikings in Brittany", which was published in 1989. He undertook his doctoral research from 1988 through to 1992 at the University of York, before moving to Sweden, where he completed his PhD at the University of Uppsala in 2002. In 2001, he edited an anthology entitled "The Archaeology of Shamanism" for Routledge, and the following year published and defended his doctoral thesis, "The Viking Way".
