    Sammanfattning : Viking-age boat grave burials are a less common but still repeatedly used way to bury the dead during the late Iron Age. Boat burials are exceptional in many aspects, not only due to placing the individual in a boat with numerous burial gifts including animals, but also by burying the individual without prior cremation, a common practice during the Iron Age.

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this study is to analyze the distribution, forms, and function(s) of iron amulets deposited in the late Iron Age gravefields of Lovö, with the goal of ascertaining how (and so far as possible why) these objects were utilized in rituals carried out during and after burials. Particular emphasis is given to re-interpreting the largest group of iron amulets, the iron amulet rings, in a more relational and practice-focused way than has heretofore been attempted. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Urlakning av järn ur arkeologiskt trä med dietylentriaminpentaättiksyra (DTPA): undersökning av koncentrationens påverkan på extraktionstakten

    Sammanfattning : The accumulation of iron in waterlogged archaeological wood during burial and its later implications for conservation has been extensively researched in recent years. Methods utilizing high performance iron chelators for the dissolution and extraction of iron have been studied and diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA) has proved to be effective in accomplishing this.

    Sammanfattning : De traditionella begravningsplatserna kräver stora ytor. Urbanisering och befolkningsökning gör att detta utrymme inte längre finns att tillgå i tätbebyggda områden. Detta projekt tar sin utgångspunkt i denna problematik och de konsekvenser den fått för de begravningspraktiker som är etablerade i vårat samhälle. LÄS MER
