Faces in Places: Portable Clay Figurines from Åland and South-Western Finland in the Light of Chemical and Petrographic Analysis
This study of Neolithic Comb Ware and Pitted Ware clay figurines from south-western Finland and Åland focuses on their provenance, technological traits, and cultural significance. Using ICP-MA/ES chemical analysis and thin-section petrography, forty-two figurines were analysed to identify clay sources and preferences in fabrication techniques. The data indicate that the figurines, and thus the humans, moved between contemporaneous locations along…
Changing Landscapes: A GIS analysis of Neolithic site location and shore displacement in Eastern Central Sweden
This article is an attempt to put forward the use of new digital techniques and data for understanding prehistoric landscapes. The starting point is that the specific characteristics of the landscape and of the sites included affect the interpretation. One character is the contemporary landscape and its topographies. Ancient landscapes can be successfully recreated digitally using GIS. By applying GIS methodology, a regression equation and new da…
The Jettbole Middle Neolithic Site on the Aland Islands -- Human Remains, Ancient dna and Pottery
The article focuses on problems in making generalizations about the character of Stone Age sites and the difficulties of separating sacred and secular remains. Like many other Pitted Ware sites, the middle Neolithic site of Jettböle on the Åland Islands has been characterized as a settlement site despite finds of a ritual character. This study investigates the spatial relationships and depositional patterns of different find categories, with a sp…
