A lot of you may know the character Floki from the Tv show Vikings. Here we see him as a genius boat builder, who is completely devoted to the Norse Gods. He is also portrayed as an incredible warrior who fought countless battles, whether it was in the cold harsh environment of Scandinavia, Paris, Wessex and the Mediterranean. The truth is we don’t really know much about Floki, there is no evidence that he was best friends with Ragnar Lothbrok as his tale mainly comes from sources such as the Gesta Denorum, the Anglo Saxon chronicle and the Volsunga saga. Whereas the evidence Floki existed is documented in the Landambok manuscript. Nevertheless, the tale of Floki is legendary, this is his story.
