Viking Warrior Women

Me and my daughter watched this together, very interesting. It isn't hard to believe there were warriors who were women. It is harder to believe all Viking warriors were men. Not every country had the mentally that women could not hold certain roles.

Nothing educational about this. Just an obvious forced narrative.

The documentary set out to come to a predetermined conclusion and "prove" there were women who were viking warriors. It seemed to mostly rehash previous work and no new real discoveries.

Some of the science was interesting.

My largest issue, as with many documentaries, is the music. It's overly dramatic and, not only adds nothing to the program, but it's very distracting. Frequently drowning out the dialog resulting in missed points

This piece explores new explanations for evidence found, by questioning assumptions and using new technologies. It has much value in rewriting or, at least, supplementing our knowledge of Viking culture. It dares to ask new questions and accept new answers.

Please enough of forced narative of women warriors everywhere in history. Everywhere program thats new these days (yawn). Apparently we lived in revisitonist society where history is being rewritten. Let's just go full hog and say men picked the berries, birthed and raised the children and made the clothes (cause apparently that work has no value, only the violent and strong should be celebrated) and the women were warriors and violent. Instead of celebrating violence as the only satisfying accomplishment let's just try, for once, to follow the evidence and celebrate everyone's role in survival without all the pandering.
