Chimene,
Great shots, and they explain a lot! I always wondered how they did
that :) But you made me hungry for fry bread (in the later pics). . .
I can't speak for Viking times, but sure enjoyed the pics.

I'm going to ponder for a while if a similar technique might be of
assistance in achieving the Viking women's ritual knot hair-dress,
which, admittedly, is also OP for this list !? In any case, it is a
marvelous demonstration of how to create and hold a fairly complex
hair construction using non-modern tools.
anyway, a Native lady on another of my lists just posted about a
zillion photos from a recent large family reunion, among them a very
step-by-step demonstration.
Now, there are several clusters of hairdress photos scattered among
pics of other activities, starting about halfway down this page,
look for the little girl in the pink and yellow top, with white yarn
holding her hair
