                  <text>This Collection analyses popular medievalism in material and public culture from the mid-nineteenth century to the present, with an emphasis on popular medievalist theatre, parades and public spectacles, as well as recreational, literary and political associations. It explores the ways in which medievalism was not simply derivative but also local and disctinctive. In this Collection you will find items relating to medievalism in public contexts and popular culture, and the revisitation or reenactment of the Middle Ages by groups such as the Society for Creative Anachronism.</text>

                <text>&lt;p&gt;Ascomanni Medieval Re-enactment Society is a living history group based in the Tasmanian city of Launceston. The group focus on Anglo-Saxons, Normans, and Vikings during the later Viking Age, specifically the period 966-1066 ending with the Norwegian defeat at Stamford Bridge and the Norman victory at Hastings. Ascomanni (a term used for the Vikings by the eleventh-century German chronicler Adam of Bremen) focus both on the daily life and martial aspects of the Viking Age.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Their website banner is an image of the reconstructed Oseberg Tapestry which was found in the Oseberg ship burial in Norway, c. 834.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>Birka Traders was the online store created by Peter Beatson to sell his medieval metalwork. The collection included mainly jewellery and personal items such as belt buckles and strap ends, and focussed on the early medieval period, particularly the Viking Age. The items were based on actual archaeological finds. The store closed in January 2011.&#13;
&#13;
Birka was the main trading centre/market place in Sweden visited by international merchants between c. 760 and 960.</text>
