About this blog
Ragna’s Islands is an AHRC-funded research project built around a new translation of The Saga of the Earls of Orkney (Orkneyinga Saga). It will bring together evidence of archaeology and place-names to transform our understanding of the Viking and Norse periods in northern Scotland. In this blog, project members and guests will highlight the texts, locations and findings emerging from the project.
