The changing fortunes of seaweeds in the North Atlantic from prehistory to the present day
Seaweeds are increasingly presented as a solution to global problems of food insecurity that can simultaneously combat climate change through carbon sequestration and regenerate damaged marine environments. However, seaweed consumption can be viewed as challenging for Western palates, requiring a significant cultural shift in order to become widely accepted. This paper summarizes archaeological and ethnohistorical evidence for seaweed exploitatio…
Barley cultivation in Viking Age Iceland in light of evidence from Lækjargata 10–12, Reykjavík
Does the ‘Marine Signature’ of Driftwood Persist in the Archaeological Record? An Experimental Case Study from Iceland
The limited native tree flora of Iceland, combined with the decline in native woodlands following the settlement of the island in the late ninth century AD, led to a very limited availability of timber on the island. However, Icelanders continued to rely on wood for fuel, construction and artefact production. Driftwood, which arrives in great quantities on the shores of Iceland, became an extremely important resource, especially for construction.…
Examining Possible Driftwood Use in Viking Age Icelandic Boats
While boat and ship graves are known from across northern Europe, and are particularly associated with the Viking Age, only seven examples of such monuments have been excavated in Iceland. Furthermore, no shipwrecks are known dating from this period in Iceland, and examples of boat timbers preserved by waterlogging are very rare. As such, the mineralized wood remains from these burials comprise the vast majority of direct archaeological evidence …
