030: In Which Harald Enters Miklegard

Season 2: Here Come the Normans!
Episode 30: In Which Harald Enters Miklegard
Years: 1034 - 1035
Settings: Kievan Rus Territory, Black Sea, Constantinople

Today, we join Harald as he leaves Kiev for adventure in the south...and lands beyond. We experience the Black Sea and the Bosporus as countless Rus, Slavic, Pecheng, Khazar, Greek, and Arab traders would have in those days, and we enter Miklegard alongside Harald taking it all in as he tours the city. Context is key before we move on in Harald’s story. I hope you enjoy the show.
