I am going to cover things I find about Viking culture and living for a bit...I'll go back to mythology later. I know there are tons of resources out there that I've no clue about so feel free to send me links. This link is connected to the pic but has interactive buttons on the pic on their page that give you more information about a Viking homestead:

Othal - The Homestead and Ancestral Lands -
"The norse were never a people to gather in vast cities or to hide away in small towns. What is common among settlements in the Viking life are small scattered homesteads or large fortified towns built around a central hall. Each family often had a sect of land called Othal or "Ancestral Land" that was given to them and was then passed down the bloodline.
Nobles often had more land than the lower classes and each homestead was semi-independent. A homestead could be a large longhouse or a small cottage. What did matter was the land the family controlled and the attachment they held for it. For the Othal was a prviilage only given to select members of the Clan."

They are my Ravens
They are my Wolves
They are my voice n my words too

The Verses of the Saga of Egil,

Kveldulf mourns the death of Thorolf

Thorolf was the son of Kveldulf and brother to Slallagrim, and uncle to Egil
Kveldolf has just learned that King Harald has killed his son and is so grieved that he spoke this verse,

'Now comes word from northern Isle,
Norns are cruel, too soon
Odin chose to throw down
Thorolf and end his day.
Weary am I and age worn,
War-wrestling is not for me.
Slow is revenge, though sharp the killers mind,
Stay my arm, cradling my vengeance
