The accepted image of the Vikings as fearsome marauders who struck terror in the hearts of their innocent victims has endured for more than 1,000 years.

Kristen Stewart is married!
The Twilight star, 35, tied the knot with Dylan Meyer in Los Angeles on Sunday, April 20, according to TMZ.
The outlet reports the couple exchanged vows at home in front of an intimate group of loved ones — including Ashley Benson and her husband Brandon Davis — after obtaining a marriage license at the courthouse.
A rep for Stewart did not immediately respond to a request for comment from PEOPLE.
Stewart and Meyer, who went Instagram official with their relationship in October 2019, got engaged in 2021. During an appearance on SiriusXM's The Howard Stern Show that year, Stewart joked that Meyer, 37 — who is the daughter of Oscar-nominated screenwriter Nicholas Meyer — beat her to the punch and was the one who proposed.
"It's not a given that I would be the one, you know what I mean? Like, with two girls, you never know, like, who's going to fulfill what weird f------ gender role thing and we don't do that or think about it in those terms," the actress explained to host Howard Stern.
"So I was like, 'Wait, well, I'm not the one for sure.' And so I was kind of joking for a bit, like, 'No, I want to be the one to propose, like, I want to be proposed to' and then she just grabbed that bowl and made it happen. It was f------ so cute," she continued, adding that Meyer "knocked it out of the park" with her proposal.
Stewart had previously opened up to Stern about the first time she told Meyer she loved her. "It was really late and we were in some s----- bar, and her friends were there or whatever and they walked out, and I was just like, 'Oh, man, I'm so f------ in love with you.' Like, done," she recalled in a November 2019 appearance on the shock jock's show. "It wasn't like 'a thing,' and it also was so obvious."
In early 2022, Stewart shared an update on her wedding plans, telling late-night host Stephen Colbert that she'd like to have a "big party or something" — but that she could also envision just deciding to get married on the spur of the moment.
"We might just go do it this weekend, I don't know, and then, like, just hang out with everyone afterwards," she said. "I just want to do it, you know? I'm not a good planner. I can't make plans for dinner."
Stewart later told CBS Sunday Morning that the wedding would "happen when it's supposed to happen," adding, "But I also don't want to be engaged for, like, five years. Like, we want to do it, you know what I mean?"
Though the pair has kept their relationship pretty private over the years, they have offered rare glimpses into their love story. In a 33rd birthday tribute to Stewart in April 2023, Meyer affectionately referred to the Spencer star as her "favorite Shrimp."
"Sweetheart, I love you more than all the shades of green, all the phases of the moon, all the cats in LA. Love you more than chunking express, or Denis Johnson's already dead, or the stooges' raw power," Meyer playfully wrote on Instagram. "I love you more than a dominos pizza when you're stoned, a Ricky's fish taco when you're hungover, and EVEN more than a plate of wings — hot and extra crispy — from rustic, aka the pinnacle of my capacity to love."
She continued, "Some might say that's too much love but I say those people are squares. Go big or go home! Happy birthday dude I love you so much."
When Meyer shared her first photo with Stewart on Instagram in October 2019 — capturing the couple kissing — she wrote, "Find me under the covers hiding from the happiness police."
