As a project that specifically refers to landscapes, the case studies form a cornerstone for HERCULES. This report describes the selection of the HERCULES case studies (in the following termed study landscapes, SLs) regarding the criteria considered and the process carried out. As a second part, it contains an overview of all SLs and provides a detailed profile for each area, including cartographic information. Attending to the criteria defined in the HERCULES Description of Work, a five step-process was carried out to identify the SLs. This encompassed 1) an open call for proposals of SL candidates among the HERCULES projects partners, 2) the evaluation of the suitability of proposed SLs by the leaders of those WPs that are active at the SL scale, 3) a decision on the SLs taken by the responsible WP 3 team and the project coordinator, 4) an adjustment process in order to achieve a maximum overlap of the activities of different WPs in the SLs, and 5) the selection of specific focus areas/study municipalities (SMs) within the larger SLs, to be referred to e.g. for more detailed map analyses or closer stakeholder interaction. This process resulted in the identification of nine SLs: 1) Vooremaa and Kodavere (Estonia), 2) Lesvos (Greece), 3) Obersimmental (Switzerland), 4) Grand Parc de Miribel Jonage, Rhône-Alpes area (France), 5) Sierra de Guadarrama foothills (Spain), 6) Parque Naturel Regional d’Armorique (France), 7) South West Devon (United Kingdom), 8) Dutch river delta Rhine-Meuse (Netherlands), and 9) Uppland (Sweden). These SLs span a variety of different characteristics (e.g. the major biogeographical zones of Europe), include both outstanding heritage features and everyday landscapes with more hidden historical layers, cover rural and urban areas and are all firmly embedded in the project via a local contact person who is member of the HERCULES consortium. The case study selection was a joint enterprise to which all HERCULES partners actively contributed. It involved several typical challenges for Pan-European multi-partner projects, ranging from the homogenisation of material from different languages and administrative systems to the development of an integrative and well-balanced agreement on the potential of proposed sites beyond specific personal interests. As such, the successful selection of the SLs proves the capacity of the consortium to work as joint and target-oriented team. 1 Deliverable D3.1 Table of contents Executive summary

  • Henrik Williams. Scripta Islandica 65/2014
    Comments on Michael Lerche Nielsen’s Paper HENRIK WILLIAMS The most significant results of Michael Lerche Nielsen’s contribution are two fold: (1) There is a fair amount of interaction between Scandinavians and Western Slavs in the Late Viking Age and Early Middle Ages — other than that recorded in later medieval texts (and through archaeology), and (2) This interaction seems to be quite peaceful, at least. Lerche Nielsen’s inventory of runic inscriptions and name material with a West Slavic connection is also good and very useful. The most important evidence to be studied further is that of the place names, especially Vinderup and Vindeboder. The former is by Lerche Niel­ sen (p. 156) interpreted to contain vindi ‘the western Slav’ which would mean a settlement by a member of this group. He compares (p. 156) it to names such as Saxi ‘person from Saxony’, Æistr/Æisti/Æist maðr ‘person from Estonia’ and Tafæistr ‘person from Tavastland (in Finland)’. The problem here, of course, is that we do not know for sure if these persons really, as suggested by Lerche Nielsen, stem ethnically from the regions suggested by their names or if they are ethnic Scandi navians having been given names because of some connection with non­Scandi navian areas.1 Personally, I lean towards the view that names of this sort are of the latter type rather than the former, but that is not crucial here. The importance of names such as Æisti is that it does prove a rather intimate connection on the personal plane between Scandinavians and non­Scan dinavians.

  • Rus Eastern Viking' and the Viking Rower Shifting' Etymology
    ELDAR HEIDE Rus eastern Viking' and the viking rower shifting' etymology In Heide 2005 I argued that Old Norse viking f. and vikingr m. belong to the same root as vika f. nautical distance unit’, originally ‘the dis­ tance between two shifts of rowers’ (from the root *wtk- ‘receding’). The feminine viking, which may be compared to Modern English -ing derivations like running or cycling, would then literally mean ‘shifting’, and originally refer to the shifting of rowers on sea-voyages. From this word denoting an activity, the masculine vikingr referring to a per­ son performing this activity could be derived. I also argued that Old Frisian forms like witzing indicate that a word “Viking” existed in the Frisian-English proto-language before the migration to England in the mid-5th century, because the palatalization of k before front vowels is that old. (The modern English form is a late borrowing.) In that case, the word Viking originated in a pre-sail culture, which fits the ‘rower shifting’ etymology. A long-distance sea-journey undertaken by rowing would be dominated by the shifting of rowers. Therefore pos­ sibly it could be referred to as “shifting”, like “fishing” in Scandinavia is referred to as “rowing”, because in pre-engine times, a fishing trip would be dominated by rowing. Here 1 would like to add a point to this reasoning.

  • Scandinavian Influence in Kievan Rus
    Katie Lane HST 499 Spring 2005 VIKINGS IN THE EAST: SCANDINAVIAN INFLUENCE IN KIEVAN RUS The Vikings, referred to as Varangians in Eastern Europe, were known throughout Europe as traders and raiders, and perhaps the creators or instigators of the first organized Russian state: Kievan Rus. It is the intention of this paper to explore the evidence of the Viking or Varangian presence in Kievan Rus, more specifically the areas that are now the Ukraine and Western Russia. There is not an argument over whether the Vikings were present in the region, but rather over the effect their presence had on the native Slavic people and their government. This paper will explore and explain the research of several scholars, who generally ascribe to one of the rival Norman and Anti- Norman Theories, as well as looking at the evidence that appears in the Russian Primary Chronicle, some of the laws in place in the eleventh century, and two of the Icelandic Sagas that take place in modern Russia. The state of Kievan Rus was the dominant political entity in the modern country the Ukraine and western Russia beginning in the tenth century and lasting until Ivan IV's death in 1584.1 The region "extended from Novgorod on the Volkhov River southward across the divide where the Volga, the West Dvina, and the Dnieper Rivers all had their origins, and down the Dnieper just past Kiev."2 It was during this period that the Slavs of the region converted to Christianity, under the ruler Vladimir in 988 C.E.3 The princes that ruled Kievan Rus collected tribute from the Slavic people in the form of local products, which were then traded in the foreign markets, as Janet Martin explains: "The Lane/ 2 fur, wax, and honey that the princes collected from the Slav tribes had limited domestic use.
