New dye analyses of Danish Viking Age textiles from Bjerringhøj, Hvilehøj and Hedeby
Lost and found
The human remains recovered from the famous Bjerringhøj Viking Age burial in Denmark have been missing for more than 100 years. Recently, an assemblage of bones resembling those recorded at Bjerringhøj-some with adherent textiles-were discovered in a misplaced box in the National Museum of Denmark. Here, the authors use new skeletal and comparative textile analyses, along with radiocarbon dating, to confirm that the bones are indeed those from th…

Wool textiles and archaeometry
Characterisations of ancient sheep breeds and wool types and theories about wool fibre processing are integral parts of textile archaeology. The studies build on statistical calculations of measurements of wool fibre diameters and reveal characteristics of the yarns that are attributed to the available raw wool and to the production methods of the time. Different microscope types have been used for data collection. Presently digital images from e…

Mise en œuvre d’une approche globale des textiles anciens au Centre de recherche sur les textiles de Copenhague
La recherche scandinave sur les textiles, qui s’appuie sur les traditions de l’archéologie expérimentale, a bénéficié de l’excellent état de conservation des textiles anciens. L’article évoque tout d’abord les origines de la discipline au xixe siècle et décrit son évolution. Les disciplines concernées par les recherches actuelles sont ensuite étudiées sous l’angle des nouvelles méthodologies, des sources et de la collaboration entre chercheurs, c…
Tracing the dynamic life story of a Bronze Age Female
Ancient human mobility at the individual level is conventionally studied by the diverse application of suitable techniques (e.g. aDNA, radiogenic strontium isotopes, as well as oxygen and lead isotopes) to either hard and/or soft tissues. However, the limited preservation of coexisting hard and soft human tissues hampers the possibilities of investigating high-resolution diachronic mobility periods in the life of a single individual. Here, we pre…
Strontium isotope investigations of the Haraldskær Woman – a complex record of various tissues
Bog bodies form a unique group of archaeological human remains which offer unparalleled insight into the past. Unlike most ancient human remains, bog bodies have preserved their skin and other soft tissues through natural tanning processes in the bogs. We present the first comprehensive strontium isotope investigation of the Haraldskær Woman and her garments, dated to the Scandinavian Pre-Roman Iron Age (500-1 BC). Our interdisciplinary research …
Man or woman? – perception of gender through costume
Knowledge of Scandinavian costume history is based on information gathered from a large variety of sources. Actual costumes of skin and textiles are off course key finds but also prehistoric iconography offers a unique opportunity for comparative costumes studies. In this article quick guidelines for identification of male and female costumes seen on goilfoil figures dated to the Late Iron Age are presented. Further the recently excavated figurin…
Characterising the potential of sheep wool for ancient DNA analyses
Removal of natural organic dyes from wool–implications for ancient textile provenance studies
Old Textiles – New Possibilities
Textile research has become an important field of archaeology. Although the established analytical methods are often viewed as specialized, their integration with other interdisciplinary approaches allows us to deal with broader archaeological issues and provides the interpretational base for a much more comprehensive investigation of textiles in ancient times. Analyses of fibres, dyes, archaeobotanical and archaeozoological remains, as well as p…
Towards the identification of dyestuffs in Early Iron Age Scandinavian peat bog textiles
Provenance of Ancient Textiles—a Pilot Study Evaluating the Strontium Isotope System in Wool
Strontium isotopes are used in archaeology to reconstruct human and animal migration routes. We present results of a pilot study applying strontium isotope analyses to modern sheep hair as a basis for its potential use as a provenance tracer for ancient woollen textiles. Our hydrofluoric acid‐based, lipid soluble analytical protocol, also tested on a number of ancient textile fibres, allows for contamination‐free, low blank strontium isotope anal…
