Why It Sucked To Be A Viking’s Slave @ADayInHistoryOfficial

Uploaded October 2025 | Updated September 2026, 1 day ago

You're a Viking thrall and your master just died... which means YOU'RE next. 💀 Dressed up like grave goods, thrown on a burning ship, and sent to Valhalla as human luggage. No choice, no escape—just screaming carry-on for eternity. This was the brutal reality of Viking funeral rituals

We hope you read more about Timur after you watch this video. Theres so much more to learn. One of those things is easy: Timur is just one version of the name of the last great Mongol conqueror. His real name was Tīmūr bin Taraghay Barlas, or Timur, son of Taraghay of the Barlas Clan, but he is most often known in English as Tamerlane, which is just a corruption of Timurlenk, or Timur the Lame. Timur actually was lame as people used to those with skeletal disabilities: he had a form of tuberculosis that infected the bones, which paralyzed his right leg and shoulder. In his younger years, he had been shot through the right hand with an arrow, losing two fingers, and limiting its use. Timur, in a word, was likely in constant pain throughout most of his life. Perhaps this affected his temper – because Timurs temper was bad. REALLY, REALLY BAD. But, unlike another supposedly disabled leader, the Viking “Ivar the Boneless”, Timur grew up to rule a gigantic empire, and killed millions, not hundreds or thousands. Ivar was an amateur compared to “Timur the Lame.” Timurs ancestors were from a powerful Mongolian clan who had emigrated from Mongolia to the area that geographers still know as Transoxania - the Land beyond the Oxus River. We know the area better as Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, and Turkmenistan. These were lands inhabited by Turkic peoples who the Mongols had subjugated under Genghis Khan and his sons in the 1200s. By the time of Timur (1336-1405), the Mongol Empire had fractured into several different kingdoms. The ruling Mongols assimilated to some degree with the native Turkic people and culture, creating a new culture called the Turko-Mongolian. #tamerlane #timur #history #genghiskhan #mongols Copyright © 2021 A Day In History.
