No, at least not that history mentions. But the Romans knew of the vikings. The ancient writer Tacitus mentions them and their ships. Recently, there have been excavations in Denmark and I believe, Norway, that point to Roman goods and Roman weapons being buried with warriors. This makes some historians think that perhaps the Viking warriors fought in the Roman army as auxiliaries.

Well for starters the word "Viking" means for one to go raiding(to go viking). The bad reputation given to the Danes, Norwegians and Swedes "Viking" activity was do to the shear speed and brutality of there attacks killing indiscriminately taking everything they could fit on a boat then racing off. The "Vikings" were also pagans and all pagans were seen as heathens to Christendom. The Danes and Norwegians early on mostly attacked Christian sites in places such as France, Ireland, Germany and Island of Britain. They would later come back to settle and in the case of England and France becomes rulers, in Ireland they founded the first cities. The Swedes on the other hand mostly attacked in the east in places such as Finland, the Baltic states, Russia and the Byzantine Empire.

A Viking was someone who went aviking. That is, a trading/raiding expedition. They were usually led by the second or third sons of a chieftain or wealthy landowner in order to make a name for themselves. (Yes, this means that not everyone who lived in the Viking age, was a viking. In fact, a very small number of people were Vikings, they were mostly farmers). They were typically from Norway, Iceland, Denmark, or another North European country, were lightly armored in leathers, fought with a wooden shield and a spear, and were not the blood thirsty savages commonly depicted. They set out each expedition with goods to trade; wine, butter, lumber, wool and textiles, honey, furs, etc. They would trade it for more valuable items. Should they come across a simple village or a Christian monastery, they would raid it. The Christians kept a lot of wealth in the Churches (just like today), that is why they raided monasteries and the like. They would then take these stolen items, and trade with them.

Metal was expensive, and only the wealthy could afford a sword, let alone full body armor. A helmet (no horns) was often worn, and only the Danish used axes as a common weapon. Usually it was a spear, since it was mostly wood.

Catapults were for entering a fortified castle and the Vikings were raiders who moved fast and lightly. They wouldn't have built a catapult nor needed one. So, they were developed in the middle ages to attack at castle.

The Vikings lived in Scandinavia (mainly Norway, Sweden and Denmark), and in Iceland.

They ventured (and proliferated) as far as Italy and the Mediterranean, but more commonly sailed to Ireland, Northern France, England, and even North America. They sometimes roamed Europe, Asia, and the North Atlantic Islands.

In 600 A.D. to 1000 A.D., the Vikings lived across Europe. They lived in Iceland, Norway, Greenland, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, and the Faroe Islands.

The closest I can get to it is skidi (imagine the upstroke of the 'd' curves back over the round bit and has a diagonal cross a bit like a lower case 't' - this letter in Old Norse is pronounced 'th').

It means sheath.
