Explanation:

To determine the correct periodical citation, we follow the standard citation format (e.g., MLA or similar), which typically includes the author's name, article title, publication name, date, page numbers, and medium (print). Let's analyze each option:

1. First option: The order is article title, author, publication, date, pages. This is incorrect as the author should come before the article title in many citation styles.
2. Second option: Author (Lidz, Franz), article title ("Revenge of the Vikings"), publication (Smithsonian), date (1 Mar. 2014), pages (44 - 49), and medium (Print). This follows a logical order for a print periodical citation.
3. Third option: The publication name is combined with the date in an incorrect way, and the article title is out of place in the order.
4. Fourth option: The author and publication name are reversed in the order, which is incorrect.

Answer:

The second option (Lidz, Franz. "Revenge of the Vikings." Smithsonian 1 Mar. 2014; 44 - 49. Print.) is the correctly formatted periodical citation.
