Publish date: June / July 2019 Publishers: Triglav Format: Softback Pages: 235 Size: 240 x 168 x 14mm (9.45 x 6.6 x 0.55 inch) Weight: 732g (1.65 lb) Kamil Rabiega has collected information concerning virtually all artifacts which can be linked to Scandinavians living In the Viking period, i.e. from the 9th to 11th century. The interpretation of such, usually fragmentary survivals of clothing, was facilitated by his own experience with the experimental reproduction of historical techniques of spinning, dyeing, weaving, cutting, sewing and embroidering clothes supplemented by an overview of iconographic sources. Translating those usually heavily stylized images on information about specific types of clothing requires a lot of imagination and knowledge, backed by historical, archaeological and ethnographic well-roundedness. The author of this book has such knowledge, which resulted in an unexpected wealth of implications. Kamil Rabiega is right, writing in the preface that his book is a 'handbook of knowledge on Viking clothing'. Prof. Przemyslaw Urba6czyk The author has done a good job getting acquainted with most of the literature, which is evident in his understanding of the details regarding the quite complicated subject matter and in the way he presents the archaeological sources and iconography. We see a very accurate picture of the state of research, thanks to systematic descriptions accompanied by illustrations of the various parts of the garments make up a comprehensive idea of not only how the elites dressed Prof. Madyslaw Duczko, AH Kamil Rabiega Archaeologist, PhD student at the Institute of Archaeology of the Cardinal Stefan Wyszyfiski University in Warsaw. He graduated in archaeology at the Institute of Archaeology of the Cardinal Stefan Wyszynski University in Warsaw and from postgraduate studies in forensic archaeology at the Faculty of Law, Administration and Economics of the University of Wroclaw. Field researcher, involved in many scientific projects in Central and Southern Europe. Author of a number of articles published in scientific monographs and periodicals.
