Kuml and piled cattle from pagan customs in Iceland. By Kristján Eldjárn.
This is the second edition of the publication. Editor Adolf Friðriksson.
The first edition of this great work was published in 1956, a reference work for archaeologists on Icelandic Viking Age relics and informative reading for the general public. The book was exceptionally well received, quickly established itself as a fundamental work on the early history of the nation and has since been an essential handbook and scholarly work for anyone studying the ancient culture of Iceland. In this new edition, archaeologist Adolf Friðriksson has added knowledge of the finds that have been found since the book was first published and other new knowledge about its subject. He has thoroughly examined the original text, improved it with additions and revised it, although the conclusions that Kristján Eldjárn reached almost half a century ago still stand unshakable in all main points. The book is adorned with around 400 illustrations, photographs, drawings and maps. It is published in collaboration with the Archaeological Institute and the National Museum. (bókatíðindi)
