Food Ethics, Domestication and Togetherness - A Close-up Study of the Relation of Horse and Dog to Man in the Bronze Age Settlement of Apalle
This paper deals with the attitude to the horse and the dog at a later Bronze Age site in central Sweden. Three different phenomena of social practise are linked together: the deposition of bones, slaughter marks on bones, and pictorial representation in rock-carvings and on artefacts. Two chronological phases at the settlement are compared in order to see if they display changes, regarding the three different phenomena, over time
Splitting bodies – A close-up study of a South Swedish bog deposition from the Pre-Roman Iron Age
A detailed taphonomic study of human and faunal remains recovered in a wetland in Southern Sweden is presented with specific focus on taphonomy, chronology and the possible practices associated with the handling of the remains of humans and animals, especially dogs. The finds from the wetland include remains of seven humans together with 21 dogs and skeletal remains of additionally 21 individuals of red fox, cattle, sheep, horse, red deer, and pi…
A sword from Vreta Kloster, and black patinated bronze in Early Bronze Age Europe
An Early Bronze Age sword from southern Sweden with inlaid decoration is investigated with regard to its original appearance, and the initial identification of an encrusted organic material within the ornamental decoration is shown scientifically to be wrong. The inlay technology now revealed is known from several Bronze Age objects from Mycenae and Egypt. A few examples from Central Europe link this sword from Sweden technologically with the eas…
Environmental Threats to Buried Archaeological Remains
The last century's environmental pollution has created health problems, acidification of ground and lakes, and serious damage to our cultural heritage. Outdoor monuments suffer from this pollution, but so do buried archaeological remains. However, research on the deterioration of archaeological artifacts underground has so far been limited, and it is important to draw attention to this neglected field. This article presents results obtained at th…
The degradation of archaeological bronzes underground: Evidence From Museum Collections
This interdisciplinary project, initiated by the National Heritage Board in Sweden, was undertaken to determine the environmental factors affecting the deterioration of archaeological bronzes in Scandinavia - while they still lie underground. The possible influence of soil acidification was obviously of special interest. The method was to examine 3200 prehistoric bronze artefacts from different museum collections in Sweden and Norway and compare …
The Earliest Record of House Sparrows ( ) in Northern Europe
The Power of Case Studies. Interpretation of a Late-Bronze-Age Settlement in Central Sweden
This paper investigates two phases {1200-1000 BC and 800-700 BC of the Bronze-Age settlement at Apalle in central Sweden, concentrating on the symbolism of the interior of houses, cooking stones, and middens. Middens of fire<racked stones and refuse were similar to tombs in the earlier phase, their contents suggest a notion of death that included the non-human. In the early phase the middens were collectively created and central to the settlement…
