I tried to post this yesterday, but it wasn't allowing me to post. I will reply with the links to the videos and other comments if this works...

I tried to post all three links in the same post, but that didn't work, so I'm going to have to post each part individually... Sad

Here is Part I:

The focus of this one is early writing in a Germanic context (Negau Helmet and the Meldorf Fibula), as well as some background information.

Here is Part II:

The focus of this one is the Elder Futhark alpahbet in the Roman iron age and migration period. We also reenact a bog sacrifice wearing 1st cen. AD kits.

Here is Part III:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LD7eNMEqt4E

The focus of this one is early Germanic languages, and includes the first recorded conversation on the web in Proto-Germanic and Gothic!

Concerning the Gothic and Proto-Norse impressions, I do realize that there are some minor issues with them Sad I'm just putting that out there so that the conversation doesn't revolve solely around that Wink

I hope you all enjoy the documentary!

Great documentary. Thanks to your team for making it!

The conversations in particular might be useful for one of my projects.
