They travelled all around Europe, sailed across the Atlantic Ocean to Canada and ventured as far east as Russia. This map shows some of the routes that the Vikings travelled. The Vikings liked the Irish fashion of using a ringed pin (like the one in the picture above) to fasten clothing. One Viking even wore his ringed pin on a trip to Canada!

Using Satellite Imagery to Track the Developmental Effects of Somali Piracy
Africa Programme Paper: AFP PP 2012/01 Treasure Mapped: Using Satellite Imagery to Track the Developmental Effects of Somali Piracy Dr Anja Shortland Brunel University January 2012 The views expressed in this document are the sole responsibility of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the view of Chatham House, its staff, associates or Council. Chatham House is independent and owes no allegiance to any government or to any political body. It does not take institutional positions on policy issues. This document is issued on the understanding that if any extract is used, the author(s)/ speaker(s) and Chatham House should be credited, preferably with the date of the publication or details of the event. Where this document refers to or reports statements made by speakers at an event every effort has been made to provide a fair representation of their views and opinions, but the ultimate responsibility for accuracy lies with this document’s author(s). The published text of speeches and presentations may differ from delivery. Programme Paper: Treasure Mapped SUMMARY POINTS There are increasing pressures to develop land-based approaches to Somali piracy. By making use of non-traditional data sources including local market data and satellite images, this paper is intended to be an objective analysis of who benefits from pirate ransoms. Significant amounts of ransom monies are spent within Somalia, but conspicuous consumption appears to be limited by social norms dictating resource-sharing. Around a third of pirate ransoms are converted into Somali shillings, benefiting casual labour and pastoralists in Puntland. Data analysis is complemented by examination of satellite imagery to establish where the beneficiaries are located.

The Price of Amity: of Wrecking, Piracy, and the Tragic Loss of the 1750 Spanish Treasure Fleet
The Price of Amity: Of Wrecking, Piracy, and the Tragic Loss of the 1750 Spanish Treasure Fleet Donald G. Shomette La flotte de trésor espagnole navigant de La Havane vers l'Espagne en août 1750 a été prise dans un ouragan et a échoué sur les bancs extérieures de la Virginie, du Maryland et des Carolinas. En dépit des hostilités alors récentes et prolongées entre l'Espagne et l'Angleterre, 1739-48, les gouvernements coloniaux britanniques ont tenté d'aider les Espagnols à sauver leurs navires et à protéger leurs cargaisons. Ces gouvernements, cependant, se sont trouvés impuissants face aux “naufrageurs” rapaces à terre et les pirates en mer qui ont emporté la plus grande partie du trésor et de la cargaison de grande valeur. The Spanish treasure fleet of 1750 sailed from Havana late in August of that year into uncertain waters. The hurricane season was at hand, and there was little reason for confidence in the nominal state of peace with England, whose seamen had for two centuries preyed on the treasure ships. The bloody four-year conflict known in Europe as the War of Austrian Succession and in the Americas as King George's War had been finally concluded with the signing of the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle only in October 1748 by the wearied principal combatants, France and Spain, which had been aligned against England. England and Spain, in fact, had been at war since 1739. Like many such contests between great empires throughout history, the initial Anglo-Spanish conflict and the larger war of 1744-48 had ended in little more than a draw.

Episode 4, Atocha Spanish Silver, Key West, Florida Tukufu Zuberi
Episode 4, Atocha Spanish Silver, Key West, Florida Tukufu Zuberi: Our first story examines the strange markings on a piece of sunken Spanish treasure. On a clear September morning in 1622, the Spanish galleon Nuestra Senora de Atocha sails from Havana Harbor, packed with over 30 tons of silver and gold. Spain eagerly awaits the arrival of the ship, but she never comes. Finally a message arrives. A massive hurricane has struck. The Atocha and her treasure lie at the bottom of the ocean. Now scuba diver, Chuck Sotzin of Cedar Town, Georgia has a piece of that treasure which has mystified him for years. Chuck Sotzin: I was a diver recovering treasure from the Atocha. I received this silver bar. It's got some markings on it and I'd like to know what some of these markings mean. Tukufu: I’m Tukufu Zuberi. And I’m meeting Chuck to have a look at his treasure. So Chuck, what's your story? Chuck tells me that as a young man he joined his uncle, treasure hunter Mel Fisher, on his search for the Atocha. Chuck: Seemed adventuresome. So I decided to go down to Key West and give it a try. Tukufu: He shows me some photos of the victorious crew and their historic haul. Chuck: Here's the silver bars on the back of the deck. That's what they look like when they're found. Tukufu: Cool. Chuck: All black and crusty. Tukufu: Now this is a serious stack of them here. Chuck: Yeah. Sitting on top of the world there.

The Transatlantic Slave Trade and Abolition
HAMPSHIRE RECORD OFFICE Archive Education Service The Transatlantic Slave Trade and Abolition Table of Contents Introduction C H A P T E R 1 Early slavery in Europe: The Romans Medieval times Barbary slaves C H A P T E R 2 The Transatlantic slave trade A plantation case study: Nutts River, Jamaica C H A P T E R 3 Two trade case studies: Sugar Tobacco C H A P T E R 4 Towards Abolition C H A P T E R 5 Legacy: Case study: John Rippon C H A P T E R 6 Writing frames Select bibliography iii Introduction This resource book examines the Transatlantic slave trade and its abolition in 1807 using archival records and objects from Hampshire Museums & Archive Service. The widespread availability of secondary works about the Transatlantic slave trade means that it is unnecessary here to restate the full history of this trade. What the archive and museum material used in this resource book brings is a ‘local’ focus to our understanding of the Transatlantic slave trade and its abolition. “The first object which saluted my eyes when I arrived on the coast was the sea, and a slave-ship, which was then riding at anchor, and waiting for its cargo ”. Olaudah Equiano, Sold as a Slave , 1789 222 Chapter 1 Early slavery in Europe Roman Slaves Roman slaves were people who were generally captured in battle and sent back to Rome to be sold. However, abandoned children could also be brought up as slaves. Roman law also said that fathers could sell their older children if they were in need of money.
