This is really beautiful - is the instrument called a bukkehorn?

[Vikingskog]

@TheOrientalNightFish Yep, bukkehorn ( in english it would be "goathorn")

[Drozda89]

Does anyone know who painted that picture? It's very captivating and compliments the bukkehorn quite nicely.

[Vikingskog]

@yurismir1 I just have to tell you that red hair is found in Scandinavians but it is not at all common.

[yurismir1]

@leeho98 I've seen many red haired Scandinavians so you're wrong. I mean, if you just want to go by stereotypes, then yes, "Celtic" people have red hair, pale skin, freckles and Scandinavians have blond hair, tan skin and blue eyes. But those are just stereotypes and not many people actually conform to them. If you go to Ireland or Scandinavia expecting 90% of people to look like that then you're going to be very disappointed.

@shirokun002 If a gene is not dominant you can't have it, genes don't work like that. Neither does blood. Blood is thicker than water, so is genes. Dominant or bust.

[leeho98]

@shirokun002 Why are you reciting the same bullshit over and over again? I know everything of what and who the Vikings blended with, stop telling me this useless shit information. You can't even address them properly "Vikings" and "Celtic people" now you are claiming that seafarers blended with a whole culture and nation of people. Very few Vikings actually settled in Ireland and blended with the Celtic population, those who settled formed their own towns; Waterford and Dublin for example.

[shirokun002]

@Cuah123 thats right :)

[shirokun002]

@leeho98 there is no need to start with the insults.im just saying even if the genes from thousands of years ago don't give you hair color or a type of build, you still have them, they just aren't dominant anymore, but you always retain those roots.the genes came from somewhere and quite frankly we all have a little bit of everything on this planet. and yes a person born today with Irish parents doesn't make them a 'viking' but the if you trace the family tree they might of had a viking ancestor

[shirokun002]

@leeho98 ...just because someone doesnt look a certain way doesnt mean they arent what they are. not all irish people have red hair or green eyes. in fact not many people have those traits at all. The Celtic people and Vikings intermingled with each other on various occasions, like i said they invaded and settled ireland. Also Celtic is not an ethnic group, its a language. And red hair is a mutation of the human gene originating in northern europe, aka scandinavia...
