This is one of my fields of specialisation- at least for denmark- I know a lot on the subject and thus know how little we actually know, and will not theorise very much, not even as much as EB has... That should, IMO, be an example to other scholars.

BTW, Bracteates are not really medieval, they are Germanic Iron Age.
I am ignorant to when germanic iron age spans, but does it include EB timeframe? and if so does putting a berzerk unit on sweboz make sense?
