Check out this blog entry about the Skjoldehamn bog body (thought to be a 11th c. woman). She's got some really interesting details on her garments, which I imagine could also be applied to male clothing (like the use of decorative braid around the neck). She's also got a stupidly simple hood that would make some great cold weather garb (or warm weather, if made of a light linen).

Also check out the link at the top of the entry to an MA thesis in Norwegian about the finds. The main text isn't very useful if you don't read Norwegian (I don't!), but the photographs are wonderful, and they're captioned in both Norwegian and English.

Yes; but then, I've never looked for Norwegian stuff specifically. Most of the Swedish and Danish stuff I see is from Birka and Hedeby. Has there not been a similarly fruitful excavation in Norway (this is entirely possible)? Or maybe it's just a language barrier thing, if there isn't much published in languages that the few people writing about this stuff online are comfortable reading. I don't know the answer.
