Deepeeka AH6413 Viking Canvas Tent - Medieval Camping Gear White

Description

This A-frame tent has been built from such artifacts as have been found on recovered Viking ships. This tent has a rectangular footprint, with vertical openings in the center of the triangular end walls. The Viking age of expansion was a time when the people traveled widely by ship, both on the oceans and the rivers of their world. Thus, they needed portable shelters that could be carried on their ships and still set up quickly. These A-frame tents met that need, and may even have used the sails of the ships themselves as roofs and sides.
