The art of the Teutonic pagans begins with the origin of Germanic people in a regional variant of the Corded Ware culture called The Swedish-Norwegian Battle Axe culture, or the Boat Axe culture, which appeared ca. 2800 BC. This developed in the Nordic Bronze Age culture, which resembles Bronze Age material culture on the continent but has some unique features, with rich barrow deposits of gold and bronze weapons and jewellery as well as thousands of petroglyphs on rocks around Scandinavia.
The Germanic Iron Age follows the Roman era, and spans what is also called the Merovingian era or the Vendel era. It is at this time the Germanic art style, influenced partly by Rome and cultures from the steppes, becomes clearly distinct from all other art styles. The Migration era and Vendel era is typified by interwoven creatures called "animal style" which Bernhard Salin classified from roughly 400 to 900 AD into three phases called Salin 1, Salin 2 and Salin 3. It was also typical of Anglo-Saxon art in England. This kind of interlace not only influenced Celtic knot-work in the British isles, but also developed into the typical Viking art forms of intricate interlace found in wooden carvings, rune stones, gold and silver jewellery and more.
