Kahdesti haudattu majuri Toll
Artikkeli käsittelee Vihdissä Kourlan kartanon mailla sijaitsevaa Toll-suvun hautakappelia. Kappelin rakennutti leski Catharina Charlotta Swedenmarck miehellensä majuri Carl Fredrik Tollille (1718–1784) tämän poismenon jälkeen vuosina 1785–86. Rakennuttaminen tapahtui hautaustapojen murrosaikana, jolloin kirkkoon ja kirkkomaalle hautaaminen oli juuri kielletty, mutta aatelisto halusi edelleen tulla haudatuksi säätynsä arvoisesti. Tämän johdosta m…

Micro-computed tomography imaging and segmentation of the archaeological textiles from Valmarinniemi
Archaeological textiles represent a variety of structures and materials, often subject to post-depositional effects such as dirt and decay. In this study, we examined textiles in 3D with high-resolution micro-computed tomography (μCT) imaging and studied the internal structures and patterns of textiles. In addition, nanoscale CT was used to identify fibre material. Two tablet-woven textile fragments and a plain-woven textile were excavated from a…
Breastfeeding in Late Medieval to Early Modern Iin Hamina, Finland, According to δ13C and δ15N Analyses of Archaeological Dentin
This article explores infant feeding customs among the population of Iin Hamina, Ostrobothnia. The carbon (δ 13 C) and nitrogen (δ 15 N) stable isotope ratios are measured in the collagen of dentin segments of permanent first molars (M1) of individuals (n = 6) excavated from a local, discontinued churchyard dating from late medieval times to early modernity. A little later, in the mid-18th century, high infant mortality in regions such as the pro…
Unusual Death and Memorialization
Most cultures and societies have their own customs and traditions of treating their dead. In the past, some deceased received a burial that deviated from tradition. The reasons for unusual burial could result from reasons such as outbreaks of epidemics or wars, or from premature births, distinctive social status, or disability. Authors present a selection of cases addressing the issue of unusual deaths, burials, or ways to remember the deceased. …
Notes on early childhood diets in early modern Oulu, Finland, based on the stable isotope case studies of archeological dentin
In mid‐18th‐century Sweden, the newly enhanced census records revealed higher‐than‐expected infant mortality rates in certain regions of the kingdom. This convinced contemporary elite men of common women deliberately refusing to breastfeed out of vanity and lack of care. One of the worst regions in terms of infant mortality was the province of Ostrobothnia, located in the area of what is now Finland. To explore the allegations, we measured the ca…
Preparing Children’s Burials in Postmedieval Finland
Examination of northern Finnish postmedieval funerary attire and coffins reveals culturally constructed sensory experiences and emotions of the individuals who took care of preparing dead children for burial. Based on historical sources, the attire and coffins for small children were generally made by adolescent godparents, whereas dressing and handling of the dead bodies were left to mature women. Because of their beliefs, parents rarely took ca…
Possible case of partial postmortem fetal extrusion
We report a plausible case of partial postmortem fetal extrusion dating to the turn of the 19th century. A fetal skull protruded from the obstetric canal of the partially mummified remains of an adult woman buried in a private burial chapel in Vihti, South Finland. The fetal size implies the mother having died during the early third trimester of her pregnancy. The cause of death was not obvious from the limited external examination of her remains…
Textiles
The taphonomy of human remains and associated funerary textiles are inevitably linked. The interplay among burial clothes, human remains, insects, rodents, and preservation is explored through study of a group of postmedieval burials in Finland. These burials have been either archaeologically excavated or inventoried beneath wooden church floors. Decay and preserving factors for various conditions are studied, allowing in-depth study of individua…
Nikolaus Rungius
Vicar Nikolaus Rungius’s (ca. 1560–1629) mummified remains have been the subject of research that has provided a wide variety of information on his life. This article examines the ways Rungius’s health and lifestyle highlight his status as a vicar, and this status is visible in his burial and funerary clothing. He was a relatively large man for his time. CT scans even include indications of certain conditions related to being overweight. Likewise…
Introduction
Two ongoing projects at the University of Oulu, Finland, are studying burials situated below the floorboards of Finnish churches. The projects examine mortality and materiality in Finland using an exceptionally well-preserved assemblage of mummified human remains. Multidisciplinary research methods, including CT scanning, μCT scanning, sampling for DNA and isotope analysis, and insect and plant samples, are providing multifaceted information conc…
Temperature and Humidity in the Base-floors of Three Northern Finnish Churches Containing 17th–19th-century Burials
Natural mummification occurs in various favorable conditions. Cold environments have produced mummified human remains in northern Finland. These remains buried under the church floors mummified naturally probably through a process resembling freeze-drying. This chapter explores the conditions that led to the mummification of dozens and potentially hundreds of human remains. To conduct our study, we installed logging temperature and humidity measu…
Newborns, Infants, and Adolescents in Postmedieval Northern Finland
Four coffins dating from the period between the mid-18th and mid-19th centuries from Keminmaa in northern Ostrobothnian Finland were examined using computed-tomography (CT) scanning, a methodology with research applications for exploring human remains, coffins, and funerary textiles. The age and, in two cases, sex of the remains were estimated, and both historical sources and archaeological material suggest that socialization through gender was a…
Computed tomography of mummified human remains in old Finnish churches, a case study
Mummified human remains have been preserved in the cool, well-ventilated crypts of old Finnish churches, which were popular burial sites among the elite of the early modern period. Here, the authors present the results of a computed tomography study of the remains of an early 17th-century vicar of Keminmaa. They examined the preservation of his remains and made several pathological findings; the causes of the latter possibly had a severe impact o…

Animating rituals at Sámi sacred sites in northern Finland
This article concentrates on the performative nature of rituals at Sámi sacred sites called sieidi in northern Finland. These sites are usually natural objects, such as stones, unshaped by humans. Offerings, such as reindeer antlers, crania, meat, metal, and alcohol, were made to the sieidi in order to ensure future hunting success. In this article, the concept of ritual as performative action is used as a tool to emphasize how practices, senses,…
