Viking Moms Were Total Power Players

Turns out, pregnancy in the Viking Age was way more than just waiting for a baby—it was tangled up in power, violence, and even politics! New research shows pregnant women weren’t just sidelined; they were sometimes depicted as fierce and even dangerous. But it wasn’t all epic—there was also a ton of inequality, especially for enslaved women and babies. Basically, Viking pregnancy was a wild mix of power, pain, and politics that historians are only just starting to unravel. #Vikings #History #Archaeology #WomensHistory #HiddenStories #Health
