Archaeological Perspectives on American White Supremacist Appropriations of Viking Heritage (2018)
This paper explores American conservatism using the lens of contemporary archaeology to rethink connections between the rise of the alt-right (white supremacy) and the appropriation and fabrication of Norse heritage in North America.

I approach these narratives as heterogeneous assemblages of people,...
