Fascinating but I would love to know how common christianity was in this area. I've always been more fascinated with the old norse religion than its runes.
Also my personal view has always been that the catholic church actively waged a holy war to convert the nordic heathens. That any bad press the vikings received was simply propaganda from the victors who wrote the history books.
