That JORVIK Viking Thing Podcast
In Viking times, a ‘Thing’ was a gathering; a place where leaders and warriors could meet and talk. In the 21st century, our ‘Thing’ is a virtual place where Viking academics and enthusiasts from around the world can come together to share knowledge.
Join Miranda and Lucas, from the JORVIK Viking Centre, as they delve into another fascinating topic about Vikings, archaeology, and more!

The Viking Kings of Jorvik
In honour of the historic Coronation and to celebrate our Bank Holiday, we decided to do a round up of all of the Viking Kings of Jorvik. And as expected it's a little silly, and a lot confusing.
Join us as we try and sort out who the kings were and when they ruled. We talk about King Cnut (not that Cnut) and then King Harthacnut (not that Harthacnut) followed shortly by that Cnut and that Harthacnut!
