Albrunnaskeppet – arkeologisk undersökning september 2016
- 2018
-
Editorial proceedings (other academic/artistic)abstract
- This report presents the results from the excavation by Linnaeus University in September 2016 of a ship-shaped stone setting at Albrunna, SW Öland, Sweden. The work was initiated by the ac- cidental falling of the 4.5 m tall phallic Albrunna stone in 2014, and the subsequent plans of erecting a copy on the spot of the original stone. Earlier records describe the stone as part of a ship- shaped monument, an indication that the excavation managed to confirm. Through soil-stripping with an excavator, the dark colourations left by the removed stones revealed a c. 30 m long and 6 m wide ship-shaped monument, oriented in an approx- imately north-to-south direction. The dating of the monument is difficult, and the excavation results provide no clear answer. Judging on its layout and relation to surrounding sites, late Iron Age is a plausible suggestion, altough a Bronze Age date can- not be excluded. Finds were scarce but included a handful of fragments of burnt bone, as well as unburned bone in relatively small amounts. Of more recent date but still interesting in con- nection to the biographical history of the monument, a glass jar containing a hand-written letter was found hidden between the large phallic Albrunna stone and the boulder against which it was leaning. The letter was dated May 2012 and contained questions to the future from a young couple in times of trouble. After the excavation was finished, a casting was made of the original stone and the concrete copy was erected at the original site in May 2017.

What painting? : Encountering and interpreting the archaeological record in western Arnhem Land, northern Australia

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Research into contemporary Indigenous relationships with the archaeological record has increasingly drawn upon frameworks emphasising relational, affectual and cultural understandings to learn about the complex ways that meaning and symbolism are negotiated and expressed. In this paper, we use a series of case studies from Arnhem Land to investigate the network of relationships Aboriginal Traditional Owners use in the process of interpreting the archaeological record. At the core of this process is Edward Casey's idea of "grasping-together", where people draw on their social and cultural knowledge as a means to make sense out of what is being encountered and how it fits into existing frameworks of knowledge and understanding. By approaching rock art through the lens of encounter and interaction, archaeologists are in a privileged position to add another layer to the, symbolism and significance people attach to their cultural heritage today.

The environmental context of a prehistoric rock carving on the Bjare Peninsula, Scania, southern Sweden
- 2011

In: Journal of Archaeological Science. - : Elsevier BV. - 1095-9238 .- 0305-4403. ; 38:3, s. 746-752

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Palaeoecological analysis of peat deposits from a small bog at Lingarden, southern Sweden, have been used to examine the nature and timing of vegetation changes and anthropogenic activity associated with a nearby rock carving located close to the edge of the wetland. This study is the first of its type to investigate the environmental context of rock carvings in southern Sweden. Debate has tended to focus on chronology and iconography, with little consideration of the environmental relationships of rock carvings and how vegetation may help construct a site within its surrounding landscape. The pollen evidence from Lingarden demonstrates that the rock carving was located in an isolated semi-wooded setting during the late Bronze Age. This is in stark contrast to several other pollen studies from the Bjare Peninsula that record widespread woodland clearance and agricultural activity from the late Neolithic Bronze Age transition. The results of this study support hypotheses that suggest complex rock carvings, such as Lingarden, were separated from settled areas. This sense of separation and isolation is reinforced by the vegetation surrounding the rock carving. This paper also discusses the relationship between charcoal in the pollen sequence and evidence that the decorated outcrop had been burnt. (c) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A new Valsømagle spearhead from Tjust, Småland, Southeast Sweden
- 2016

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In early June of 2011, co-author Goldhahn was contacted by a former student who had discovered that a bronze spearhead was for sale on the Swedish on-line auction site Tradera. The web site informed potential buyers that the spearhead of Valsømagle type been purchased at an auction in Västervik in Tjust, a town situated in Southeast Sweden. Use-wear analysis has showed that the spearhead may have been used multiple times and been subject to considerable transformational repairs. Analyses also showed that the spearhead was most likely used multiple times in heavy combat.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- How can rock art signal contact between different social groups and cultures? In this special collection of papers for Australian Archaeology, we find several different answers to this question, based on a number of Australian and International case studies first presented at The Second International Contact Rock Art Conference in Darwin, September 2013 and further developed in the years since. In this introductory paper, we set these important depictions in a global context, and explore some of the information that contact rock art offers in studying past, present and emerging societies.

Bredarör på Kivik – en arkeologisk odyssé
- 2013. - 1
-
Book (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Bredarör på Kivik är känd som ett av norra Europas mest märkliga och omdebatterade fornminnen från bronsåldern. Det enorma röset med sina åtta hällar med inknackade bilder har varit en rik källa till debatter och dispyter sedan den 14 juni 1748 då två husmän bröt sig in i det slumrande röret. I bokens 24 kapitel tecknas monumentets antikvariska och arkeologiska biografi. Här presenteras såväl äldre som nya tolkningar om monumentet och det presenteras en rad nya analyser. För att förstå betydelsen av ett monument som Bredarör på Kivik bör vi närma oss det från skilda analytiska nivåer och perspektiv. Gåtans lösning får sökas inom dig själv.

Children and Rock Art : A Case Study from Western Arnhem Land, Australia
- 2020

In: Norwegian Archaeological Review. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 0029-3652 .- 1502-7678. ; 53:1, s. 59-82

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In this paper, we explore the social context of rock art creation through the lens of one woman's childhood experiences in, what is now, Kakadu National Park in the Northern Territory of Australia. We reflect upon oral history interviews conducted over the last three years with Warrdjak Senior Traditional Owner Josie Gumbuwa Maralngurra and her childhood spent walking country with family. As a witness to vast numbers of rock paintings being created, and sometimes an active participant in that process, Josie's memories provide rare insights into the social and cultural context of rock art practices during the late 1950s and early 1960s. We argue that Josie's personal experiences provide solid evidence for both the educational role that rock art continued to play across the region during the 20(th)century and its role as a tool for helping to ensure intergenerational connection to country.

Engendering North European rock art : bodies and cosmologies in Stone and Bronze Age imagery
- 2012
-
In: A companion to Rock Art. - London : Wiley-Blackwell. - 9781444334241 ; , s. 237-260
-
Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This chapter explores how sex, gender, and embodiment are expressed in North Euro- pean rock art. Contributions that approach rock art with engendered perspectives are described, along with an appraisal of the present state of gendered rock art research. We regard rock art as part of the prevailing cosmologies of Stone and Bronze Age societies in northern Europe, and investigate how sex and gender are significant components of these.

Engraved biographies : rock art and life-histories of Bronze Age objects
- 2014
-
In: Current Swedish Archaeology. - : Svenska Arkeologiska Samfundet. - 1102-7355. ; 22, s. 97-136
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This article deals with engravings depicting sometimes life-sized Bronze Age metal objects from “closed” burial contexts and “open-air” sites in northern Europe. These rock art images have mainly been used for comparative dating with the purpose of establishing rock art chronologies, or interpreted as a poor man’s” substitute for real objects that were sacrificed to immaterial gods and goddesses. In this article, these rock art images are pictured from a perspective that highlights the mutual cultural biography of humans and objects. It is argued that the rare engravings of bronze objects at scale 1:1 are best explained as famous animated objects that could act as secondary agents, which sometimes allowed them to be depicted and remembered. Moreover, two different social settings are distinguished for such memory practice: maritime nodes or third spaces where Bronze Age Argonauts met before, during or after their journeys, e.g. places where novel technological and/or famous objects entered and re-entered the social realms, and burial contexts where animated objects sometimes was buried at the end of their life-course.

From the dead to the living - death as transactions and re-negotiations
- 2006
-
In: Norwegian Archaeological Review. - Oslo : Universitetsforlaget. - 0029-3652 .- 1502-7678. ; 39:1, s. 27-48
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Apart from eschatological aspects, death is more important for the living than the dead. It is argued that funerals are one of the most important settings for recreating society through the re‐establishment of alliances. When an important person dies, his or her former social relations and alliances come to an end and have to be re‐established from a societal point of view. At funerals not only are gifts given to the deceased, but it is equally important that the ritual participants make new alliances and re‐negotiate old ones by the exchange of gifts. Thus, the distributions of artefacts, or the construction of different funeral monuments, are here seen as the outcome of such transactions. By emphasising transactions and re‐negotiations of alliances in different funerals we argue that the distribution of prestige goods in Europe is not only part of trade or warfare. Exchange of gifts and prestige items as part of reciprocal relations was crucial in the structuring of inter‐regional areas. Funerals were such occasions where the descendants and the living could legitimate future hierarchies by transferring the deceased's social status and power to themselves by re‐negotiating former alliances and creating new ones. ‘Change equals death’ (Woody Allen)

Journal article (other academic/artistic)abstract
- This paper discusses one of the famous slabs from the Bredarör Bronze Age cairn at Kivik in Scania. Many researchers believe it is lost. The slab depicts two axes, two spearheads, a conic teature and a ship, all arranged in an almost heraldic way. An unpublished excavation report by Gustaf Hallström and renewed examination of histoncal sources show that Nils Henrik Sjöborg found fragments of the slab in 1814. Then it was put back in its original place in the cairn's central cist Some time between 1814 and 1849 it was removed, and lost again.

Handlare Holm på Kivik och Riksantikvarie Curman i Stockholm: : Några tankar om institutionaliseringen av kulturminnesvården under första delen av 1900-talet

Book chapter (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Merchant Holm in Kivik and State Antiquarian Curman in Stockholm – On the institutionalization of the cultural heritage sector during the first half of the twentieth century. In recent years, several thought-provoking studies have been published on the history of archaeology and the coming of a cultural heritage sector. A central figure in these studies is Sigurd Curman, who also was the State Antiquarian in Sweden between 1923 and 1946. Common to these studies is a fairly normative historiography celebrating Curman’s life achievement. In my ongoing research about Bredarör in Kivik, I have also encountered Curman and his life project, not least since this monument was one of the first that he restored and made accessible to the knowledge-hungry public in the early 1930s. The inauguration of the restored monument in 1933, with Crown Prince Gustav Adolf as the most distinguished guest, is without doubt one of Curman’s most important milestones. Some 3,000–4,000 people witnessed the event. Curman was celebrated for his great success. The picture that emerges in archives and collections of letters, however, tells a partly different story about the beginnings of the cultural heritage sector in Sweden, where hitherto anonymous actors on the periphery, such as the local merchant Anders N. Holm of Kivik, played important roles. Holm’s commitment to this particular monument exhibits both similarities and dissimilarities to Curman’s vision of a modern culture heritage sector, as highlighted in this article.
