The invention of the longship for commerce and warfare is credited to the Norsemen mainly known as the Vikings.

What is a longship?

The longships were sleek, long, wide, and light, with a shallow-draft hull that was aimed to design for speed. The ship's small draught allowed it to navigate in deep waters of one meter and make arbitrary beach landings.

Longships were unique Viking warships that have a long history in Scandinavia, with their invention and use by the Norsemen being archaeologically verified and documented.
