RE: The vikings in Morocco

in #norway6 years ago

I visited both places 25 years back. The viking connection exists in Moroccan's collective cultural memory, at least on those places. Unfortunately all my papers were confiscated by the Moroccan secret police, but Svein Halvorsen' s thesis can be read at the National Library in Oslo (advanced master thesis in history from the 1990's)

According to a 18th century Icelandic historian the vikings came to the Red Sea app year 600 (Torfinn Torfeus).
