They Said Vikings Only Went West — This Explorer Went East to Persia

They Said Vikings Only Went West — This Explorer Went East to Persia

Forget everything you thought you knew about Viking exploration.

For centuries, history told us the Northmen sailed west — to Iceland, Greenland, and even Vinland. But new evidence and ancient sagas hint at a bolder voyage: a Viking expedition that reached east, into the glittering world of Persia.

This is the story of a forgotten Viking explorer, remembered only in fragments of silver, silk, and stone. From the saga of Ingvar the Far-Travelled to Persian artifacts buried in Viking hoards, the truth emerges — one that reveals the Vikings’ global reach was far greater than we ever imagined.
