12th century Scandinavian warriors:
Wood carvings of the Saga of the Volsungs: The Norse Epic of Sigurd the Dragon Slayer, from the portal of Hylestad stave church, Setesdal, Norway, 12th century
. Sigurd and Regin forge the sword Gram
. Sigurd slays Fafnir the dragon
. Sigurd roasts the heart of the dragon
& a Scandinavian Militiaman by Ian Heath based on Sigurd the Dragon Slayer
There is also 'Massacre of the Innocents' on the Altar from Broddetorp Parish Church, 12th century, Västergötland, Swedenon which Ian Heath based a Scandinavian lamellar corselet, but David Nicolle doesn't think this is a useful source. MIRROR SITES:
