In Iceland, the discovery of a ship-tomb containing a woman’s grave tells us that they could take part in the expeditions of their conquering spouses. Scientists have detected their traces in the DNA of populations scattered throughout Northern Europe, and as far as Russia. They set foot on American soil four centuries before Christopher Columbus. What rank did women occupy in this hierarchical society, reputedly dominated by men? Were they the bloodthirsty warriors described in the sagas?
