The Viking Sagas are a collection of medieval narratives that recount the adventures and exploits of Norse heroes and explorers. These stories, written in Old Norse, often blend history with mythology, showcasing the values and beliefs of the Viking culture. They provide insights into the lives of Norse people, their voyages, and their encounters with other cultures. Many sagas focus on legendary figures, such as Sigurd the Dragon Slayer and Ragnar Lothbrok, while others detail real events and individuals from the Viking Age. The sagas were primarily composed in Iceland during the 13th century and remain important literary and historical sources today.
