The Vikings’ mythology, craftsmanship, literature, and seafaring skills became a part of the European inheritance.

The correct answer is D) The Vikings’ mythology, craftsmanship, literature, and seafaring skills became a part of the European inheritance.

Since the end of the 8th century to the end of the 11th century, Vikings -warriors and merchants from Scandinavia- attacked and explored most of Europe, among other regions. Their presence in Europe during all these centuries left an important cultural footprint in the people they entered in contact with. Most of their tales and myths were known by Christian monks who wrote them down in several manuscripts, like the Viking Sagas, which tell the stories of famous semi-legendary Vikings. Their knowledge of seafaring and craftsmanship was acquired by local European communities. They had an important political role in Great Britain and France, where they had colonies like York and Normandy (called like this due to the Norsemen settlers). For all these reasons, the Scandinavian culture of this time became an important part of the European inheritance.
