A Revision of the Dendrochronological Date of the Grønhaug Ship – and its Methodological and Interpretational Implications
Violence as a lens to Viking societies
Comparing Viking Age Norway and Denmark, the article examines the primary proposition that as centers of authority become progressively more robust, violence will be proportionately contained. The article introduces a new approach in using indications of violence as a focal point to elicit broader social practices. The disciplines employed in this study – archaeology, osteology, philology, and sociology – are used together in the study of covaria…
Population genomics of the Viking world
Geochemical analysis of the truncated Viking Age trading settlement of Heimdalsjordet, Norway
Single and multielement archaeological geochemistry has been applied to research and rescue projects for many decades to enhance our understanding of the past use of space. Often applied on one contextual plane, this ignores the complex palimpsest resulting from past occupation and soil processes. Furthermore, many important sites are now heavily truncated by plowing, leaving little more than negative features below the homogenized topsoil. These…
Constructing and deconstructing the Gokstad mound
Viking Age burial mounds are usually interpreted with reference to their exterior dimensions, the funerary treatment of the deceased and the artefacts placed within them. The process of constructing these mounds, however, may also have played an important role in funerary traditions. Investigations at the Gokstad mound in Norway demonstrate that the building of this mound-in terms of its phases and material expressions-formed an integral part of …

Geoarchaeological evaluation of ground penetrating radar and magnetometry surveys at the Iron Age burial mound Rom in Norway
Following magnetometry and ground penetrating radar surveys, a geoarchaeological field evaluation was carried out at the Iron Age burial mound of Rom in Slagendalen, Vestfold County, Norway, in order to assess the accuracy of the geophysical data interpretation and to investigate specific questions that have arisen during data interpretation. The evaluation was conducted within the framework of an archaeological excavation campaign in 2013, which…
Palaeoenvironmental analysis of large-scale, high-resolution GPR and magnetometry data sets
Protecting Against the Dead? On the Possible Use of Apotropaic Magic in the Oseberg Burial
The use of apotropaic practices, that is, of magic to protect against evil, is sometimes included in archaeological interpretations on the basis of similarities between archaeological objects and objects used in historically documented or present-day apotropaic practices. The present article attempts to develop the archaeological study of apotropaism by focussing on apotropaic ritual, in addition to apotropaic devices. The case study is a burial …
Integrated microstratigraphic investigations of coastal archaeological soils and sediments in Norway
The plundering of the ship graves from Oseberg and Gokstad
Not the least of the unusual revelations that have come from the wonderfully preserved ninth-century Norwegian ship burials at Oseberg and Gokstad, is the fact that both had been later broken into-by interlopers who defaced the ship, damaged the grave goods and pulled out and dispersed the bones of the deceased. These 'mound-breakers' helpfully left spades and stretchers in place, and through the application of some highly ingenious dendrochronol…
