SAGA Norse Storehouse

Many Norse were ‘Vikingr’ (roving and marauding adventures) but others were ‘Kaupamadr’ (buyers and sellers of merchandise) who were the masters of trading goods across their known world. Their ‘Hafn’ (harbour/port trading towns) grew up all around the coastline of North Western Europe.  It was in these Harbour towns with their bustling streets and markets that goods from all corners of their trading routes were gathered and stored in ‘A’ framed buildings much like these two.
