‘Guy from Wisconsin figured out how they did it and recreated the sword. Smelted his own steel from iron ore, forged it, even did the inlaid name Ulfberht.’
Saw that. The really funny part was that they had a second tier model (or someone was knocking it off)for guys who wanted the flash but coulcn’t afford the original.

Well, if we’re going to get all picky about period appropriateness you’d better bone up on archaic European languages before you pop out of here, because you’re not going to be able to explain anything at all otherwise.
Even English as spoken today would likely sound like gibberish to an individual from the 8th century. Ever read Chaucer in the original Middle English? That’s from six hundred years later.

Where there citrus fruits in Europe at that time?
I thought the explorers brought them back from China, much later.
If there are citrus, then I get to bring something else.

Where would I be transported to? Viking village? Monastery in Ireland? Feudal Japan? Antarctica? Location determines the three things that I would need.

Well, if it were the Aztecs, conquered peoples would become livestock. Europe at least quit making people into “the other white meat” centuries before coming to the Americas.

“Then, I’d have to swallow my American distaste for such things and engratiate myself to the local lord as quickly as possible, lol.”
Well, you COULD bring a taser,tell his Lordship how things are going to be, and if he demurs, make his ass do the funky chicken.

There used to be coconuts, but they migrated under the dorsal guiding feathers of unladen swallows.

That would be a very gratifying albeits shortlived experience. If you survived you’d be tried as a witch or sorcerer if you lived that long.

First I would like to be in the Eastern Roman Empire and here is what I would bring...
1. Bring my computer with a solar power charger. So I can help Byzantine Empire expand and defeat the Muslims.
2. Beef Jerky
3. A nice world map.

Personally, I’d take:
Soap
Peroxide and
Penicillin
Over time, I might be considered a god of longevity.
