A Natural Choice
This study re-evaluates south Scandinavian burial practices during the early part of the Christianization period (tenth–eleventh centuries). By employing a bottom-up approach, we focus on the specific funerary practices rather than on teleological, top-down models of religion. We identified a significant shift from Viking Age grave goods (exotic, precious, personal objects with long and complex biographies) toward everyday, local and natural (bio…
Viking Age Ship Graves as part of a Multifaceted Repertoire of Performative Burial Customs
Kerbing Relations through Time
The paper explores a group of graves in which the past was used actively in Viking Age eastern Norway. Studying the use of the past in the past was introduced in British landscape archaeology of the 1990s, but a reassessment and a renewed relevance of the theme may now be observed due to the rise of materiality studies and the affective turn within archaeology. Through an investigation of the apparently insignificant kerbstones on a number of Vik…
Reassessing power in the archaeological discourse. How collective, cooperative and affective perspectives may impact our understanding of social relations and organization in prehistory
This paper critically examines how power is understood and used in archaeological interpretation of prehistoric societies. We argue that studies on power within archaeology have been haltered in their interpretive potential, frequently limited to individualizing coercive power with androcentric connotations. We explore new avenues of power through a retrospective view. Drawing on ideas first conceptualized by Hannah Arendt, while also incorporati…
Crossing the Maelstrom
This paper reviews the achievements and challenges of archaeological research on Viking Age northern Europe and explores potential avenues for future research. We identify the reemergence of comparative and cross-cultural perspectives along with a turn toward studying mobility and maritime expansion, fueled by the introduction of biomolecular and isotopic data. The study of identity has seen a shift from a focus on collective beliefs and ritual t…
Rune Stones as Material Relations in Late Pagan and Early Christian Scandinavia
In this article, the material qualities and the use of space on rune stone and its links to the landscape during the Viking Age and in the Early Medieval Period in South Scandinavia are explored and related to acts of commemoration and changing spatial perceptions. The 11th century rune stones from Denmark and Scania without iconography have previously received less scholarly attention by the archaeologists, but here they form the main focus. Whe…
Connectedness with things. Animated objects of Viking Age Scandinavia and early medieval Europe
This article examines a small group of artefacts of the Viking Age that may have been perceived as animated objects. These specific weapons and pieces of jewellery appear in narratives in the Old Norse sources as named, as having a will of their own, as possessing personhood. In archaeological contexts the same types of artefact are handled categorically differently than the rest of the material culture. Further, the possible links between these …
Divergent Ways of Relating to the Past in the Viking Age
The flexibility of material culture encourages material phenomena to take a dynamic part in social life. An example of this is material citation, which can provide society with links to both the past and connections to contemporary features. In this article, we look at the diverging ways of relating to and reinventing the past in the Viking Age, exploring citations to ancient monuments in the landscape of Gammel Lejre on Zealand, Denmark. Complem…
Living Places or Animated Objects? Sámi Sacrificial Places with Metal Objects and Their South Scandinavian Parallels
The article takes its point of departure in 12 Sámi sacrificial places from northern Sweden and Norway. It is argued that the sites with metal objects of the ninth to fourteenth centuries in a number of ways are comparable to acts of deposition in south Scandinavia. These Viking Age depositions consisted of partly the same types of artefacts, took place on the shores of wetlands with sacral names and were in use in the same time period as the Sám…
Fragments of a conversion
The article discusses aspects of changing relationships between the living and the dead in Scandinavia in the Viking Age (800 – 1050AD) and the beginning of the Early Middle Ages (1050 – 1100AD). This period was characterized by the change of religion from Paganism to Christianity. The changes and variations in the treatment of the deceased' bodies and the grave goods are explored in a number of case studies. Fragmentation and wholeness in relati…
Heads and Tails – Minds and Bodies
A pair of animal heads of the Faardal type is central in our reinterpretation of the Late Bronze Age Vestby hoard from eastern Norway. After a period of use and circulation, the heads were mounted on bodies belonging to a different animal species. We argue that the making of the animal figurines and the other high-quality objects of the hoard can only be properly understood against the backdrop of Scandinavian Bronze Age cosmology. This line of t…

Banks, Borders and Bodies of Water in a Viking Age Mentality
In this paper the meanings related to lakes in the Viking Age cognitive landscape are examined through a re-reading of a number of Old Norse sources with a focus on bodies of water and an analysis of depositions of jewellery, weapons, tools and cauldrons from a number of South Scandinavian lakes. It is argued that the finds are not lost accidentally or stored in order to be retrieved, but can be interpreted as the outcome of ritual acts. The rela…
