I recently read that the commodities the Vikings traded for silk and other goods in the Middle East were slaves they captured in their raids. Skirda, A. (2010). La traite des Slaves. L’esclavage des Blancs du VIIIe au XVIIIe siècle, (56-57) .The book is in French, but here is a crappily Google translated article on it: http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=fr&u=http://www.polemia.com/la-traite-des-slaves-lesclavage-des-blancs-du-viiie-au-xviiie-siecle-de-alexandre-skirda/">http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=fr&u=http://www.polemia.com/la-traite-des-slaves-lesclavage-des-blancs-du-viiie-au-xviiie-siecle-de-alexandre-skirda/
