Meet one of the most dreaded vikings Representation - Ivar The Boneless.
Ivar, boneless (in ancient Nordic: Ivarr Hinn Binlausi; in ancient English: Hyngwar), also called Ivar, son of Ragnar (in ancient Nordic: Ivar Ragnarsson), was a viking and military commander who has invaded what is today England . He appears in 865, when he led the large pagan army with Haldano and UBA. In 851, after King Etelvulfo from Western Saxony (R. 839-858) defeating them, the Vikings decided to go north to the Eastern Anglia. Sagas see their invasion as a response to their father's death in the hands of Nortumbria in 865, but the historicity of the claim is uncertain. At the end of 865, the Vikings arrived at Eastern Anglia, but were impelled to wake peace with King Edmund (R. 855-869 / 870) by horses. They stayed in the area during the winter before they marched at Nortumbria at the end of 866, where they overlapped the newly deposed osberto and usurper and settled in york. For the legends, it was executed by the brothers using the blood eagle, a ritual method of execution of debatt historicity in which the thoracic box is opened and the lungs are stretched, creating a shape similar to wings. In 867, the Northumbs paid tribute and the invaders put Egberto I (R. 867-872) as a tibeum and went to Mercia, where they took Nottingham. King Burglo (R. 852-874) asked for aid to King Etelredo of Western Saxony (R. 865-871) and the combined army besieged the city without any successes, forcing the mental ments to pay tribute. They returned to Nortumbria in the autumn of 868 and widened in York staying there almost all of the year 869. They returned to the Eastern Anglia and were the winter of 869-870 in Thetford. This time the invaders and places did not agree the peace and when Edmund attacked them, he was captured and killed; According to a preserved tradition in the passion of Fleury Abon, he was ivar who ordered death by decapitation. Ivar is no longer quoted after Edmund's death. However, it is usually associated with IMAR, a Nordic Dublin King who died in 873.
{The Spirit of Leadership and Power}
To be able to lead an army, Ivar needed to be intimidating and very strategic. Despite his disability, he was strong enough to use a bow and arrow causing more harmful injuries than a common soldier. Ivar was also described as a warrior who rose upon his opponents, leading to believing that his enemies also knew him as 'a giant'. This in a way ends up hurting the theory that he was incapacitated.
{Death}
Some reports speak that his death was around the year 873 and would have occurred due to a 'sudden disease'.
This can explain your nickname very well, since the disease would have caused serious damage to your bones.
For many centuries historians have sought his tomb. In 1686, a grave of a Viking burial ended up being discovered in an area where Ivar defeated an army Mércio. In it there was a person apparently of great importance buried and about another 260 skeletons
{curiosities}
The curious thing is that in Viking tradition, someone like it would have been killed at birth. However, for being the son of a powerful chief Ivar had his life saved. All this because Viking was born poor and could not keep standing without help from another body of his body was very fragile and he had to be protected with a shield when in battle. Ivar's mind, unlike his body, was very astute. Maybe one of the fastest and most crisp around him. Along with its great army, the Viking, at the end of the century IX, Ivar terrified the English nation, so that they conquered everything. De Essex Adublin. Under Viking's leadership, an era of Viking domain was inaugurated in Britain, which only ended much after his death.
{Legends}
According to what the legends count, Ivar did not have a single bone in his body. Therefore, the nickname "The boneless". However, the truth about the life of Ivar, in addition to those who count the English, is a bit difficult to determine. According to British sources, it is presented as a true envoy of the hell, which led to the destruction and death for your country. According to the Nordic legends, Ivar is the son of Aslaug, a shaman, and Ragnar Lodbrok, a famous Viking leader and warrior. After they were married, Aslaug told Ragnar that they should wait three nights to consummate the wedding. If this was not respected, the couple would be born with problems. Ignoring what he had heard, Ragnar forced the sexual intercourse and Ivar, the boneless, was born. Considering that a boneless person would have very few chances of surviving in the real world, we take it as certain that some things about the history of Ivar can be only invention. Some modern historians have theories about why Ivar was called that way the vast majority of them believes that Ivar had a hereditary disease called imperfect osteogenesis, also known as glass bones. Some vikings would have described as someone very large. Records of the seventeenth century showed that the remains of Ivar metal meters found by a farmer, indicated that he was almost two meters high.
