Archaeology and Odin in Late Pagan Denmark
This article discusses archaeological evidence for the veneration of Odin in late pagan Denmark. According to place-name evidence Odin was totally dominant in public cult at this time, and was closely linked to warriors and kings. (Actual evidence for a relationship with the great cult centre at Lejre is uncertain.) However, a group of riders’ graves with weaponry from the tenth century represent a new burial custom for magnates, and it is argued…
The religious administration of Constantine
Much of Håkan Rydving's work deals in one way or another with the influence of Christianity on the Saami-peoples. In my paper I explore how Constantine promoted Christianity through his time as emperor in the laws he issued. It is my argument, that Constantine really did nothing - or very little - that was without precedent, but that his careful method and his longevity as ruler was among the reasons for his success in creating the beginnings of …
Commensality
Throughout time and in all parts of the world, humans have eaten together socially. Commensality, eating and drinking together, is fundamentally a social activity which creates and cements bonds which define our place in society. Covering prehistoric archaeology, to medieval banquets, to the inaugural dinner of the American President to everyday commensality as we eat in our homes, with friends, in religious ceremonies and as a form of political …
Óðinn from Lejre — or

According to the accepted interpretation, this is a representation of the Norse god Óðinn, but the authors of the present article propose that it may instead represent a pre-Christian prophetess, a vǫlva . Regarding the methodology of the identification of divine images, the authors argue that a particular god is not identified by an attribute, but rather created by the said …

Øen i den keltiske verdensopfattelse
It is well known that the Celts oriented their physical environment around a centre as can be seen from a number of Continental place-names. In Ireland we even find a highly developed division of the island according to the four corners of the world into four "provinces" around the centre. The division is ideological or religious rather than political. It is argued that this division of the world included an island outside of the sphere of the or…

The Cult of the Roman Emperor before and after Christianity
This paper is concerned with a complete set of rituals and certain connected ideas, namely the Roman emperor-cult, that had survived the change of religion from Roman religion to Christianity. The rituals endure, even while their mythological basis is perishing. The emperor-cult includes the rituals and symbols which surround the Roman emperor and clearly demonstrate that he is more than an ordinary human
