Academic Videos concerning the History of Icelandic Magic Staves

 Hello friends,

I know I haven't been to this blog for a very long time, as I have been focused on other platforms such as Patreon and Youtube, but also in my day-time job as an Archaeologist.

Many things I wrote in this blog I've been revising for the past 5 years at YouTube. New research and evidences are always popping out, so it's always important to have our knowledge updated. This also concerns posts I've written in the past in relation to the galdrastafir (Icelandic Magic Staves).

I thought it would be useful to add here the YouTube videos I've done concerning Icelandic Magic Staves (galdrastafir) to help people research about the history of such symbols, as there's plenty of pseudo-historians and modern merchandise dealing with "Viking Religious Symbols" which does not portray the actual historical evidences and scientific knowledge concerning the history and archaeology of Nordic History.

The videos I will share here are my own academic works, and you can find bibliography at the end of those videos, so you can check for yourself. I hope it is useful. Thank you.
