Exploring Medieval Folklore, Ritual and Herbalism


About me
My name Beth, but in the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) I am known as Baroness Dyrfinna Drengsdottir. This blog is dedicated to my exploration of the medieval world view through the lens folklore, ritual and beliefs. I also love the natural world, plants, animals, and gardening. Lucky for me, to our ancestors these things were inextricably combined. My absolute favorite period to learn about is Iron Age Finland, though my projects will often stray to other regions and eras within the general topics of folklore, herbalism and ritual.
On this page you will find my research, latest projects, and thoughts in progress as they pertain to the Arts and Sciences community for the SCA. Please feel free to contact me below with any questions or comments you may have!
