Title A name given to the resource Viking Dragon Ship Subject The topic of the resource Brisbane, brooch, Lady Chelmsford, Christiana, dragon, Ivar, Norway, QLD, Queensland, The Queenslander, recreation, shield, ship, Viking, Vikings Description An account of the resource A newspaper article about a Viking Dragon Ship on page 29 of the Brisbane newspaper The Queenslander on 18 July, 1908. The recreation ship filled up most of St Paul’s Hall and included shields with emblems along its sides, a prow consisting of a dragon with ‘open mouth, blazing eye-balls, and golden horns’. Another shield (perhaps in place of a sail) was on a pole in the centre of the ship and hoisted during the opening ceremony. Stalls draped in Viking colours were set up around the sides of the ship. Accompanying the ship were people in Viking dress and pseudonyms. The opening was presided over by Lady Chelmsford, who had seen a real Viking ship in Christiana, Norway. The article states that the Viking dead were placed in ships and the whole then set on fire. After accepting a Viking brooch from ‘Ivar’, the Vikings gave a war-cry and Lady Chelmsford thanked Ivar in Norwegian. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Anon.

Title A name given to the resource Viking Tales: Olaf’s Farm Subject The topic of the resource Brisbane, Denmark, dragon ship, fiction, Jennie Hall, illustration, literature, Norway, Odin, QLD, Queensland, The Queenslander, ship, Thor, Valhalla, Viking, vikings Description An account of the resource An illustrated story on page 48? Of the Brisbane newspaper, The Queenslander, published on 23 November, 1907. The story by Jennie Hall is about a young Viking from Denmark named Olaf who, as the youngest son, has to ‘go a-Viking’ (raiding) in order to accumulate wealth. He builds a ship with a dragon prow and leads a crew to Norway where they successfully raid along the coast. After forcing themselves upon a local farming household the Danes end up having a pleasant evening with the farmer and his family and reward them richly with gifts the following morning. The crew are then defeated in a naval battle by the fleet of king Halfdan and all die except Olaf who becomes a ‘thrall’ (servant) of Halfdan. The characters also invoke aspects Norse mythology, including Valhalla and the gods Odin and Thor. The story was taken from ‘Prairie Farmer’ and includes an illustration of the armed Vikings bursting into the farmhouse.

Title A name given to the resource Ancient Viking Ships Subject The topic of the resource Brisbane, Gokstad, Norway, Norwegian, QLD, Queensland, The Queenslander, reconstruction, ship, ships, shipbuilding, Viking, vikings Description An account of the resource An article on page 46 of the Brisbane newspaper The Queenslander on May 26, 1932. The public interest piece reports on the decision of the Norwegian government to reconstruct the Viking-Age Gokstad ship from the pieces recovered during excavation. It is suggested that the Gokstad ship would be the worlds oldest seagoing ship. The final paragraph of the article, which begins with ‘There was a virile romance about the vikings and their ships’, claims that it was a Viking tradition for captives to be tied down and crushed by the ships when they hit the water when being launched. Not surprisingly, this ‘fact’ is not found in modern scholarly works about the Vikings.

Title A name given to the resource A Viking's Sword Subject The topic of the resource Brisbane, burial, England, Norseman, The Queenslander, raiding, ship, ships, swords, sword, QLD, Queensland, sacrifice, Sweden, Viking, warfare, war, battle, battles, weapon, weapons, weaponry Description An account of the resource A highly romanticised article on page 46 of the Brisbane newspaper The Queenslander on 17 May, 1934. The article reports on a male Viking warrior grave uncovered in Sweden. Among the various grave-goods found was a sword made in England. This leads the author to create a highly speculative account of a Viking raid on England and the sword being ‘taken from the dead hand of one who fell defending his home’. Other goods found accompanying this member of the ‘sea wolves’ included a horse, dog, a possible slave, gaming pieces and a possible slave. The article also mentions the ‘savage gods’ that the man was likely to worship and his preference to die abroad in battle. The article is a good example of the romantic speculation that the Vikings seem to encourage. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Anon.
