What is the difference between a Viking saga and a Norse myth? Did the sagas and myths change over time? And most importantly, did the Norse gods come from Troy?
Learn all this and more as we speak to Lucas Norton, one of our Viking interpreters from here at the Jorvik Viking Centre.
Don't forget, Lucas is also hosting the daily saga for That Jorvik Viking Thing, which you can find at JorvikThing.com.
