Hi,

thanks for arranging the Viking-congress, which I thought was a very fun idea!

I was just wondering, who was the chair, after lunch again, (the young man in his 30's with a beard on his chin or under his mouth, or what it's called).


Because I thought he was a bit 'on' me.

The one who replaced the professor from Chester who was ill.

I've also sendt to the professer from National Museums Liverpool and cultural historical museum Oslo University again, about possible founding or expertice from Norway, for the vikingship in Meols, which I brought up about, yesterday, on the congress, after the professor from National Museums Liverpool spoke about the archeolology in Irby.


Also, I tried to explain about my contributing regardin the subject of Dingesmere, to do with the big battle between the Vikings and the English, on the Wirral.

In Norwegian, 'dynge' means 'heap'.


And I thought that could be relevant, since Norwegian and English once were the same language.

The young chair was an expert on Scandinavia, (which I'm not I'm just a normal Norwegian, but I've worked on a viking-farm in Norway, actually, Løvås farm in Kvelde, (where someone tried to murder me, i 2005, so I went to Liverpool, and the police wont investigate).


The young chair said that in Scandinavia 't' often became 'd'.

(This I don't know myself from being Norwegian, even if I one term at high-school got the best grade, 'S', in Norwegian).


The young chair also said that vikingships in Norway weren't always dug up.

But, in Norway, we have many vikingship, in several musums, (like in Denmark etc).


But in the Wirral/North-England, you haven't got a single vikingship which had been dug up.

So if it's right that we have ships like that, under clay, in Norway, then at least we have some vikingships which we have put in the museum first.


E.g. the Vikingship Museum in Bygdøy, in Oslo.

Also, I thought I had to 'argue' with two people at the same time, when I spoke.

Because the young chair, interrupted, my dialog with the two professors, I thought a bit.


So that's why I left before the book-launch, because I was a bit disapointed in the young chairs behavour.

So I was just a bit currious, who the young chair was again.

Because his name wasn't mentioned on the agenda, since the initial chair, after lunch, the professor from University of Chester, was ill, if I understood you right, when you briefly spoke, after lunch, yesterday.


Thank you very much in advance for any reply!

And thanks again for holding the Viking-congress, which was very fun, and the Viking-exhibition, at the Grosvenor Museum, in Chester, was also very fine I think!


Yours sincerely,

Erik Ribsskog

Dear Erik

Many thanks for your
email. I will write a more detailed reply later but I thought I'd better
point out that the present St. Olave's building is of course not the original
but is probably on the site of an original building which may have been
wooden - we don't know. It is in the southern part the city
which we believe to be the Scandinavian part of Chester in the 10th
Century (and includes the discovery site of a viking treasure hoard at Castle
Esplanade and some timber constructions similar to those in Dublin). The
main area of Norse settlement in the area was in Wirral where there is extensive
place name, archaeological and historical evidence, including 2 hogback
tombstones.

If you get a chance have
a look at my website


and its links, but I will
write back to you more when I have some more time,

Beste
sommerhilsener

Subject: St. Olave's Church in
Chester


Hi,


I'm from Norway, but I live in Liverpool, and the other day, I was in
Chester, and I coinsidentily

stubled upon, the St. Olave's Church, since I thought I had to see a bit
of the other towns and

cities, in the North-West, and not only Liverpool.



I took some pictures of the church, and posted on my blog.


From the 'sign' there, it could seem like the church was from the
18th century, so much was

my surprice, when I searched on the internet, and found, that the chuch
was almost a thousand

years old, built by Norwegian Vikings who were refugees from Dublin,
since they lost control there,

it seems to me, after reading on the internet about this.



I read on a blog called 'Ainscough Family History', which I found throug
Google, about the 'Viking

march', between the Wirral and Chester.



So I wrote a comment on that blog, with questions about the St. Olave's
Church, and was adviced

to contact you.


I was just wondering if the church is listed, since I don't think we
have that old viking stone-

buildings in Norway.


We have 'stav'-churches, in three, but I don't think we have any
stone-buildings, that are this old.



So, I was just curious about this.


I also wondered if there had been conflicts between the St. Olave's
Parish and the St. Michaels

Parish, since on one building, 'Nine Houses', the borded between the
parishes, was written on

the buildings facade.



And, I was also wondering, why it isn't a plaque there, explaining about,
that the church is almost

a thousand years old, built by Vikings from Ireland, because the plaque
that's there now, makes

it almost seem, that the building was built much later, or, it only least
the year the church was

conserved, in the 18th century, I think it was.



As I understand, all the part of Chester, from the main street, and down
to river, used to be

a Viking-district.



I was wondering, on some of the half timbered houses, I saw some symbols
that looked a bit

like what we call 'firkløver', that's four-cleaver, I think, in English,
could these symbols have

been from Norway, or are they English, since I heard that these black and
white half-timbered

houses are 'Tudor-style', so I guess that the Vikings, in Chester, would
have other types of

buildings, that was there, before the Tudor-style buildings,contemporary
with the St. Olave's

Church?



Sorry that I'm asking a lot of questions, I understand if you haven't got
the time to answer any

of these questions.


I just coincidentaly notices this church, when I was in Chester, and
thought it was fun, to see

place-names, and buildings, named after a Norwegian king, that we learned
about at school,

in Norway.


And at school, in Norway, we, as far as I remember, only learned
about that York, or 'Jorvik',

like the Vikings called the town or city, was a Norwegian Viking-town or
city.


But we didn't learn about, that there were viking setlements, in
Cheshire and Merseyside.


So I wasn't aware of, that there was Viking-buildings, in Chester,
when I went there, so I was

a bit surprised to see the church, and read about it on the internet, so
that was very fun.



I thought that maybe this church, could be one of the few buildings etc,.
that remained,

after the Vikings, that had to leave Ireland.


In Norway, we learn at school, that Vikings founded Dublin etc., but
we don't learn that

they went to England, after they lost control in Ireland, so this was fun
to learn.


So sorry again that I'm asking a lot of questions, and thanks in
advance, if you have the

time to explain about any of the questions which I've ask!


Yours sincerely,


Erik Ribsskog

Om meg

Bildet mitt
Overhørte på Rimi Bjørndal, (jeg jobbet som butikksjef/leder i ti år, i mange forskjellige butikker), i 2003, at jeg var forfulgt av 'mafian', mm. Har etter dette ikke fått rettighetene mine, i mange saker. Blogger derfor om problemer med å få rettigheter, mm. Mine memoarer, (Min Bok 1-10), kan også finnes på johncons-blogg, (se: 'Etiketter'). Jeg blogger også om slektsforskning, (etter at min danskfødte mormor, som var etter adelige/kongelige, døde i 2009). Har også vært såvidt innom Høyre/Unge Høyre, i sin tid. Har også studert informasjonsbehandling/IT/Computing, (på NHI, HiO IU og University of Sunderland). Har også bakgrunn fra handel og kontor, (grunnkurs, økonomi med markedsføring og data). Er/var også i Heimevernet, (etter at jeg ble overført dit, etter førstegangstjeneste i infanteriet, (og en rep-øvelse i mob-hæren), i forbindelse med omorganiseringer, i Forsvaret, etter den kalde krigen). Blir også utsatt for mye nettmobbing, mm. johncons-blogg, (og mine memoarer og nettbutikk), er kjent fra TV-programmet Tweet4Tweet, i 2012, (selv om jeg måtte klage, for programmet var veldig useriøst/nedlatende, mm.).
