Microwear analysis of a 10000-year-old rhyolite blade assemblage from Sujala, northernmost Finland
Evaluating lithic raw material economy − efficiency and durability of slotted bone points in Eastern Central Sweden
In the paper, the authors investigate the relationships between the organization of hunter-gatherer stone tool production, technology, raw material use, as well as social interaction, communication, and mobility. Based on a controlled experiment modeling the use of Mesolithic slotted bone points as hunting weapons from the Mesolithic Motala site in Eastern Central Sweden, their production, durability, efficiency, and repairability are investigate…
First encounters in the north
Population genetic studies often overlook the evidence for variability and change in past material culture. Here, the authors use a Mesolithic example to demonstrate the importance of integrating archaeological evidence into the interpretation of the Scandinavian hunter-gatherer genetic group. Genetic studies conclude that this group resulted from two single-event dispersals into Scandinavia before 7500 BC. Archaeological evidence, however, shows…
The stone cist conundrum
New insights on cultural dualism and population structure in the Middle Neolithic Funnel Beaker culture on the island of Gotland
Lithic Raw Material Economy in the Mesolithic
The foundation of this paper is lithic economy with a focus on the actual use of different lithic raw materials for tasks at hand. Our specific focus is on the production of bone tools during the Mesolithic. The lithic and osseous assemblages from Strandvägen, Motala, in east-central Sweden provide the archaeological background for the study. Based on a series of experiments we evaluate the efficiency and durability of different tool edges of fiv…

The First Eastern Migrations of People and Knowledge into Scandinavia
In this paper a team of Scandinavian researchers identifies and describes a Mesolithic technological concept, referred to as ‘the conical core pressure blade’ concept, and investigates how this concept spread into Fennoscandia and across Scandinavia. Using lithic technological, contextual archaeological and radiocarbon analyses, it is demonstrated that this blade concept arrived with ‘post-Swiderian’ hunter-gatherer groups from the Russian plain …
Comment on Ingela Bergman
Stone age transitions. Neolithisation in central Scandinavia
A summary of a series of individual research projects focused on the processes from the Mesolithic to the Late Neolithic in central Scandinavia. The projects were embeded in the "Coast to Coast project". The historicity in this process was emphasised
The Application of Acetate Peels in Lithic Usewear Analysis
A technique for making acetate peels of tools using Triafol is outlined. A series of ‘blind tests’ is described where the suitability of this replica material for reproducing the details of usewear was tested. The advantages and disadvantages of the use of acetate peels are discussed with reference to examination of usewear traces
