Brad Arroyo+FollowViking Moms Were Total BadassesTurns out, Viking women weren’t just chilling at home—they were out there wielding swords, rocking helmets, and even starring in wild revenge sagas while pregnant! A new study just dropped, showing that pregnancy in the Viking age was way more political and intense than we thought. From foetuses destined for vengeance to pregnant women as warriors, this flips everything we thought we knew about Viking gender roles. Also, the way they treated pregnancy and newborns? Not always as sweet as you’d hope. #Vikings #History #WomenWarriors #Archaeology #MindBlown #Science20Share
frazierdanielle+FollowViking Warrior Women? The Plot ThickensTurns out, some Viking graves packed with swords and axes actually belonged to women! For years, archaeologists just assumed all the weapon-filled burials were men, but DNA tests are flipping that script. Now, there's a big debate: were these women real warriors, or is everyone just stuck on old stereotypes? Either way, the whole "only burly dudes fought" Viking myth is looking shaky. Imagine how many shieldmaidens we’ve missed because of outdated thinking! #Vikings #History #WomenWarriors #Archaeology #MythBusting #Science330Share
