The Tanum Viking petroglyphs in Sweden have been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The site includes one of the largest collections of carved rocks of the Nordic Bronze Age – the ‘Vitlyckehal’ – in Scandinavia. The ‘Tanum petroglyphs’ represent 1000’s of images concentrated in a 25 km stretch which was originally the coastline of a fjord during the Bronze Age. The petroglyphs in this area feature boats (the Hjortspring boat), wagons (or carts), animals, and humans with various tools and weapons. In addition to hunting scenes, human rituals are depicted.
This image depicts a viking longboat with a crew (depicted by short vertical lines), and a person wielding an axe and another holding a shield as well as oars.
