Gunnar Heinsohn: the Truso Lecture
We are presenting Gunnar Heinsohn's elaborated version of his 2015 Truso lecture: How did so many 1st-3rd cent. AD Roman elements make it into the 8th-10th century Viking age?
The slides have been already published here in Q-MAG.org.
The final print version was edited by Marek Jagodzinski (excavator of Truso, and the conference's organizer) in Polish and English for the proceedings. At the last moment, however, it was decided to exclude Heinsohn's contribution. Q-MAG.org is making it available to the public.
