In the movies, we always see Vikings dirty from yet another battle, dousing their beards with wine at yet another feast, and then bam in bed. This makes us question their #hygiene habits and liken them to complete savages. However, it turns out that the truth is completely different, for that time they had excellent hygiene. Excavations of Viking sites have found tweezers, razors, combs and ear cleaners. Also, Vikings bathed at least once a week, which was much more frequent than other Europeans at the time. Archaeological excavations prove that the Vikings used a sauna. In #theclashers channel you can find many more interesting videos to watch and learn something.
