What did the Scandinavians do near Suzdal?

alligas 25.06.11 в 23:50

The puzzle for archaeologists.

alligas 25.06.11 в 23:52

The od-Slavic settlement Davydovskoe

alligas 27.06.11 в 16:37

is the puzzle for archeologists.

alligas 27.06.11 в 16:38

This is the only settlement on the territory of Suzdal Opole

alligas 27.06.11 в 16:42

where under a medieval cultural layer

alligas 27.06.11 в 17:20

Finnish burial places were found

alligas 27.06.11 в 17:23

of the mid-first millennium.

alligas 27.06.11 в 17:24

It turns out that the Slavs had came here later.

alligas 27.06.11 в 17:20

But from where?

bananas13 27.06.11 в 07:26

And where did the Finns disappeared to?

alligas 27.06.11 в 17:54

Discovered here ceramics of the Baltic type

alligas 27.06.11 в 17:57

and the special findings

alligas 27.06.11 в 17:58

provide a basis for interesting hypotheses.

alligas 27.06.11 в 17:58

This uncomplicated object,

alligas 27.06.11 в 18:05

crumpled wire

alligas 27.06.11 в 18:06

with three little iron

alligas 27.06.11 в 18:06

rods on it

alligas 27.06.11 в 18:06

guess it's the most unexpected and 9nteresting find

bananas13 27.06.11 в 07:29

of this season.

bananas13 27.06.11 в 07:30

This is the scandinavian amulet,

bananas13 27.06.11 в 07:32

the pagan amulet,

bananas13 27.06.11 в 07:32

a tenth sencury object,

bananas13 27.06.11 в 07:34

which shows,

bananas13 27.06.11 в 07:34

that among the population

alligas 27.06.11 в 18:12

which was concentrated in these rural settlements,

alligas 27.06.11 в 18:12

were immigrants from Scandinavia. These things were not for selling,

alligas 27.06.11 в 18:17

they were not objects of a trade.

alligas 27.06.11 в 18:17

They could be transferred only

alligas 27.06.11 в 18:19

with people from the environment where

alligas 27.06.11 в 18:19

the value of these amulets was clear, where these amulets were used as

alligas 27.06.11 в 18:20

religious symbols.

alligas 27.06.11 в 18:20

So, some Scandinavians were here .

alligas 27.06.11 в 18:45

And I think that most likely they remained here.

alligas 27.06.11 в 18:49

They were imbibed, so to speak,

alligas 27.06.11 в 19:30

they already lost their original ethnicity

alligas 27.06.11 в 19:31

They became old Russian people

alligas 27.06.11 в 19:31

who have already spoken in old-russian language.

alligas 27.06.11 в 19:32

And they gradually forgot their origins.

alligas 26.08.11 в 23:04

An archeology doesnt allow to trace lives of certain people.

alligas 26.08.11 в 23:08

Someone, probably, could depart for Bizantium.

alligas 26.08.11 в 23:11

We know that Yaroslav,

alligas 26.08.11 в 23:12

after he took under his control

alligas 26.08.11 в 23:12

key Old Russian cities,

alligas 26.08.11 в 23:16

offered to Byzantine emperor

alligas 26.08.11 в 23:21

offered to Byzantine emperor the Scandinavians,
who already were not needed to him.

alligas 26.08.11 в 23:22

Like his father, Vladimir, did the same earlier.

alligas 26.08.11 в 23:26

But this finding

alligas 26.08.11 в 23:31

shows, rather, that some integration processes had taken place.
