Abstract:
Sawyer draws mainly on chronicle, language, personal- and place-name and coin evidence to summarise 200 years of Viking raids and colonisation of the islands of north and west of Scotland and the coasts of Ireland. From these strongholds Vikings raided the both Irish and Welsh settlements and monasteries. Records for a second wave of Viking raiding in the 10th century, after determined resistance had driven them out of Dublin in the later 9th century, are confused by the willingness of the Irish themselves to raid their neighbours for goods and cattle at this time.
