The Rødhals kitchen midden – marine adaptations at the end of the Mesolithic world
The Rødhals kitchen midden was located on a tiny stretch of land 18 km from the nearest major landmass in present-day Denmark. It dates to the Mesolithic-Neolithic transition, roughly 4300 to 3700 cal BC. Its inhabitants practiced a remarkably broad-scale exploitation of marine resources spanning from the collecting of mollusks on the sea-shore, over open-sea fowling and deep-water angling to the killing of small whales. The sparse traces of terr…
Organic residue analysis of Early Neolithic ‘bog pots’ from Denmark demonstrates the processing of wild and domestic foodstuffs
The Nekselø Fish Weir and Marine Reservoir Effect in Neolithization Period Denmark
The Nekselø Wickerwork provides an unusually solid estimate on the marine reservoir age in the Holocene. The basis for this result is a 5200-year-old fish weir, built of hazel wood with a brief biological age of its own. Oysters settled on this construction. They had lived only for a short number of years when the fence capsized and was covered in mud and the mollusks suffocated. Based on the difference in radiocarbon ( 14 C) age between accelera…
Microwear analysis aiding excavation prioritization at the submerged Mesolithic settlement of Orehoved, Denmark
The Maglemosian skeleton from Koelbjerg, Denmark revisited
The Koelbjerg individual, dated c. 8500 cal BC, represents the earliest human skeletal remains described from Scandinavia. Based on ancient DNA, strontium isotope and statistical anthropological analyses the individual’s sex, haplogroup and geographical provenance are here analysed and discussed. In contrast to previous claims, our genetic and anthropological analyses show that this individual was a male. Additionally, the strontium isotope ratio…
A Late Glacial family at Trollesgave, Denmark
Microwear analysis is applied to reconstruct the function and social organisation at the Late Glacial site of Trollesgave, Denmark.As with Bromme Culture sites in general, the lithic assemblage consists of primarily three types of tools.There is a strong association between these types and their use: end scrapers for dry hide scraping; burins for working hard material, primarily bone; and tanged points primarily for projectile tips.Nearly all div…
Dating the Trollesgave site and the Bromme culture – chronological fix-points for the Lateglacial settlement of Southern Scandinavia
The Bromme culture belongs to the Lateglacial, the period when people settled in the recently deglaciated Southern Scandinavia. Until now there have been only a few imprecise fix-points relating to the chronological position of this archaeological culture. This situation can now be improved with the aid of research results from a Bromme culture settlement at Trollesgave in SE Denmark. Using pollen and plant macrofossil data, Lateglacial lacustrin…
Illuminating the Late Mesolithic
Shallow oval bowls used on the Baltic coast in the Mesolithic have been suggested as oil lamps, burning animal fat. Here researchers confirm the use of four coastal examples as lamps burning blubber—the fat of marine animals, while an inland example burned fat from terrestrial mammals or freshwater aquatics—perhaps eels. The authors use a combination of lipid biomarker and bulk and single-compound carbon isotope analysis to indicate the origin of…
The Fensmark settlement and the almost invisible Late Palaeolithic in Danish field archaeology
Traces of Late Palaeolithic activity in the North European landscape are practically invisible to modern field archaeology. The result is an almost complete loss of information about the presumably numerous activity sites from this period which each year are either damaged or destroyed by agriculture and development. This article addresses the root causes of this situation and outlines the possibilities for its mitigation. The difficulties involv…
Carbon and nitrogen isotope signals in eel bone collagen from Mesolithic and Neolithic sites in northern Europe
Ancient lipids reveal continuity in culinary practices across the transition to agriculture in Northern Europe
Farming transformed societies globally. Yet, despite more than a century of research, there is little consensus on the speed or completeness of this fundamental change and, consequently, on its principal drivers. For Northern Europe, the debate has often centered on the rich archaeological record of the Western Baltic, but even here it is unclear how quickly or completely people abandoned wild terrestrial and marine resources after the introducti…

Freshwater Reservoir Effect in 14 C Dates of Food Residue on Pottery
Radiocarbon dates of food residue on pottery from northern European inland areas seem to be influenced significantly by the freshwater reservoir effect (“hardwater” effect) stemming from fish and mollusks cooked in the pots. Bones of freshwater fish from Stone Age åmose, Denmark, are demonstrated to be 100 to 500 14 C yr older than their archaeological context. Likewise, food residues on cooking pots, seemingly used for the preparation of freshwa…
