The Viking Ship Museum ((デンマーク語:Vikingeskibsmuseet)) in Roskilde is the Danish national museum for ships, seafaring and boatbuilding in the prehistoric and medieval period. Around the year 1070, five Viking ships were deliberately sunk at Skuldelev in Roskilde Fjord in order to block the most important fairway and to protect Roskilde from enemy attack from the sea. These ships, later known as the Skuldelev ships, were excavated in 1962. They turned out to be five different types of ships ranging from cargo ships to ships of war. The Viking Ship Museum overlooks Roskilde Fjord and was built in 1969 especially to exhibit the five newly discovered ships.〔(BBC Ancient history in-depth: Viking dig reports )〕 In the late 1990s excavations for an expansion of the museum uncovered a further 9 ships including the longest Viking warship ever discovered, at 36 metres.〔(Navis ship database: Roskilde 6 )〕 == Gallery == File:Skuldelev II.jpg|Skuldelev 2 in the museum hall File:Viking-ship at roskilde-museum, denmark.JPG|Inside the museum hall File:Roskilde Wiking03.jpg|Navigable reconstructions of the original ships are built at the museum island 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Viking Ship Museum (Roskilde)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
