- Norse_activity_in_the_British_Isles abstract "Norse activity in the British Isles occurred during the Early Mediaeval period, when members of the Norse populations of Scandinavia travelled to Britain and Ireland for trade, raiding and settlement. The Norse peoples that came to the British Isles have often been referred to in modern scholarship as Vikings; however, there is a dispute among scholars as to whether the term Vikings should be used to apply to all Norse settlers or simply the Norse raiders.At the start of the Early Mediaeval period, the Norse kingdoms in Scandinavia had developed trade links stretching all the way into southern Europe and the Mediterranean that gave them access to imports such as gold. Such trade links also extended westward into Ireland and Britain.In the final decade of the 8th century CE, Norse raiders attacked a series of Christian monasteries located in Britain. This started in 793, with an attack on the monastery at Lindisfarne off of England's eastern coast, and the following year they sacked the nearby Monkwearmouth-Jarrow Abbey. In 795 they once again attacked, this time raiding Iona Abbey on Scotland's west coast.".
