English: Glass beakers - the ultimate Viking luxury
Glass beakers are rare finds and have been found almost exclusively in aristocratic tombs and graves. Glass beakers from the Roman Empire were imported to Scandinavia from around the first century CE. During the Viking Age most of the glass came from the Frankish Empire and the British Isles. A few beakers from the Middle East have also been found. The beakers in the display case are copies of grave finds from Birka. Most of the Birka beakers are from graves of powerful women. This reflects the crucial role played by women with drinking vessels during feasting and ceremonies. This is also shown in depictions of Valkyries and mythological women on picture stones and on pendants. From the Maritime Museum exhibition |
