title: [Health status in Norway around the year 1000].
abstract: One thousand years is a very long period, especially in relation to medical history. More than 30 generations have lived over this space of time, and their thoughts and attitudes and their views on hygiene, sickness and treatment are heterogeneous. This paper will discuss the state of health in Norway at the time of the turn of the first millennium--at a time when Norway underwent profound political, social and religious changes, as well as structure of diseases.
