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.

The Danish-German Border: Making a Border and Marking Different Approaches to Minority Geographical Names Questions
The Danish-German border: Making a border and marking different approaches to minority geographical names questions Peter GAMMELTOFT* The current German-Danish border was established in 1920-21 following a referendum, dividing the original duchy of Schleswig according to national adherence. This border was thus the first border, whose course was decided by the people living on either side of it. Nonetheless, there are national and linguistic minorities on either side of the border even today – about 50,000 Danes south of the border and some 20,000 Germans north of the border. Although both minorities, through the European Union’s Charter for Regional and National Minorities, have the right to have signposting and place-names in their own language, both minorities have chosen not to demand this. Elsewhere in the German- Scandinavian region, minorities have claimed this right. What is the reason behind the Danish and German minorities not having opted for onomastic equality? And how does the situation differ from other minority naming cases in this region? These questions, and some observations on how the minorities on the German-Danish border may be on their way to obtaining onomastic equality, will be discussed in this paper. INTRODUCTION Article 10.2.g. of the Council of Europe’s European Charter for Regional and National Minorities (ETS no. 148) calls for the possibility of public display of minority language place-names.１ This is in accordance with the Council of Europe’s Convention no. 157: Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities. Here, the right for national minorities to use place-names is expressed in Article 11, in particular sub-article 3,２ which allows for the possibility of public display of traditional minority language * Professor, University of Copenhagen, Denmark. -
Transnational Finnish Mobilities: Proceedings of Finnforum XI
Johanna Leinonen and Auvo Kostiainen (Eds.) Johanna Leinonen and Auvo Kostiainen This volume is based on a selection of papers presented at Johanna Leinonen and Auvo Kostiainen (Eds.) the conference FinnForum XI: Transnational Finnish Mobili- ties, held in Turku, Finland, in 2016. The twelve chapters dis- cuss two key issues of our time, mobility and transnational- ism, from the perspective of Finnish migration. The volume is divided into four sections. Part I, Mobile Pasts, Finland and Beyond, brings forth how Finland’s past – often imagined TRANSNATIONAL as more sedentary than today’s mobile world – was molded by various short and long-distance mobilities that occurred FINNISH MOBILITIES: both voluntarily and involuntarily. In Part II, Transnational Influences across the Atlantic, the focus is on sociocultural PROCEEDINGS OF transnationalism of Finnish migrants in the early 20th cen- tury United States. Taken together, Parts I and II show how FINNFORUM XI mobility and transnationalism are not unique features of our FINNISH MOBILITIES TRANSNATIONAL time, as scholars tend to portray them. Even before modern communication technologies and modes of transportation, migrants moved back and forth and nurtured transnational ties in various ways. Part III, Making of Contemporary Finn- ish America, examines how Finnishness is understood and maintained in North America today, focusing on the con- cepts of symbolic ethnicity and virtual villages. Part IV, Con- temporary Finnish Mobilities, centers on Finns’ present-day emigration patterns, repatriation experiences, and citizen- ship practices, illustrating how, globally speaking, Finns are privileged in their ability to be mobile and exercise transna- tionalism. Not only is the ability to move spread very uneven- ly, so is the capability to upkeep transnational connections, be they sociocultural, economic, political, or purely symbol- ic. -
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. -

Finnish Features in the Tradition of the New Comers (Mainly Buildings)
1 Teppo Korhonen THE HERITAGE OF NEW COMERS – FINNISH FEATURES IN THE TRADITION OF THE NEW COMERS (MAINLY BUILDINGS) Buildings The building culture of the Forest Finns is known quite well owing to Albert Hämäläinen's monograph on the subject, although it became partly outdated in the light of further research carried out by the beginning of the 1960s. Finland belongs to the Northern European area of corner-timbered houses that takes in Norway, Northern Sweden, the Baltic countries, Central and Northern Russia. The framed horizontal planked wall structures were not unknown, but it was seldom used for entire buildings. The interlocking technique was chiefly used for building inside walls between hallways, sheds, cowsheds, etc. In the earlier times the houses were usually built of round, and in the 17th century from hewn pine logs in the western parts of the country. The scribing of the logs was done with a special tool, a log scribe. After scribing, the bottom of the log is given a cope, that is, a half moon-shaped groove following the lines drawn by the log scribe. Scribing allows a good fit between the logs. In the case of the Forest Finns, interest mostly focused on the chimneyless cabin, threshing shed and sauna, which were regarded as typical of them. In Swedish sources and literature the chimneyless cabin or house is called alternatively rökpörte or rökstuga. The terminology of the Forest Finns is quite distinct: the dwelling room, known as tupa (< Sw. stuga), had a masonry oven with a level platform part (pankko < SW. bänk.
