Abstract

The article discusses the temporal organization of social life in Viking-age Scandinavia (c. AD 750-1050) and the challenges of its scholarly investigation. Based on a survey of the contemporary sources, it will be documented that three main zeitgebers were employed: the shift between day and night, the lunar phases, and seasonal changes.
