About the test
This test combines four tests available on our website for the Vikings of Iceland, Ireland and the Isle of Man, England and Wales, and Scotland.
We obtained the DNA of 65 ancient Vikings from 37 sites throughout Iceland, Ireland, England, Wales, and Scotland. Overall, this test includes 65 Vikings who lived for a millennium, between 664 and 1691 AD. The test provides a detailed history of Icelandic Vikings from Medieval times, their haplogroup breakdown, and their history of encounters with other people and summarizes the evidence as to their whereabouts. The test includes a detailed historical, archeological, and paleogenetic background on the Icelandic Vikings, including how they lived, their cultic practices and mysticism, their treatment of others, and their deeds. A detailed profile is available for every Viking.
