Anglo-Scandinavian
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Anglo-Scandinavian is an academic term referring to the archaeological and historical periods during the 8th to 13th centuries in which there was migration to - and occupation of - the British Isles[1] by Scandinavian peoples generally known as Vikings. It is used in distinction from Anglo-Saxon.
