What did the men and woman do?

Most Viking men were all round handy men, but some had special skills. There were boat builders, for example and potters, leather workers and black smiths. Most Viking men knew how to handle a boat. And most could fight if they had to, to protect the family or to support their chieftain(leader).
Women baked bread. They did spinning and weaving to turn sheep wool into cloth. They looked after the children, made the family's clothes and cooked the two meals a day most families ate. On the farm, women milked the cows and made cheese.
