Purchase records tell us that timber for building the Vasa, completed in Stockholm in 1628, was bought from southeastern Sweden, Königsberg and Amsterdam (Cederlund 1966). An extensive tree-ring analysis of the timbers used to build Vasa is revealing details of the use of timbers in the hull from different sources. As part of the project entitled “Northern Europe’s timber resource – chronology, origin and exploitation (TIMBER),” the study of the timber for Vasa can be directly compared to the historical record of timber purchases, so that details of the volumes of timber that were supplied from the different sources can be outlined
