Most Mediterranean countries have capitals that existed as cities during the Roman period or earlier, which would put them squarely in Biblical times, such as Jerusalem, Beirut, Amman, Damascus, Istanbul, Athens, Rome, Lisbon, Algiers, and Tripoli (among others).

What was the capital of Denmark back in the Vikings?

Roskilde, west of Copenhagen was Denmark's first capital during late viking times. Before that the seat of the kings who united the country was in Jelling in middle Jutland. [Of course, it should be added that a Capital in the modern sense of the word didn't exist in the viking age]The king Harald Bluetooth probably transferred his seat of recidence to Roskilde because it was more centrally placed, and to exploit the mythical strength of the area. Just south of Roskilde the Danes had their legendary 'home' in Lejre. Excavations in Lejre have shown traces of "royal size" houses dated back to the late iron age - it was probably also a religious centre.
