Dinamarca

They also stood out for being brave and relentless warriors, as well as experienced strategists. They were skilled merchants who imported goods through the routes they established, such as sil- ver, silk, spices, weapons, wine, glass, ceramics, and precious stones among other products; at the same time, they exported honey, wheat, wool, leather, feathers, ivories, amber, tin, and more. They were experts in the cultivation of land and livestock breeding. They were also creative artisans and goldsmiths, capable of producing magnificent necklaces, bracelets, brooches and figures with precious materials. They were tireless narrators of their traditional myths, as they passed their knowledge from generation to generation in this manner. Some vestiges of their writing are the runic texts, as well as The Younger Futhark alphabet, which was in use between 850 and 1150, and consisted of 16 runes or symbols—their transcriptions are an invaluable source of information. ·amura· 107 herencia cultural • culture and heritage 10.
