Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper explores how Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age contacts between Sweden and the Volga-Kama region in Russia have been discussed in Swedish archaeology, focusing on bronze axes of the Mälar (or Akozino-Mälar) type and Ananino type. We argue that research by Finnish archaeologists has played a central role for introducing and inspiring discussions in Sweden on interactions with areas in Russia. Furthermore, we stress the importance of including eastern perspectives in debates on the Bronze Age and Early Iron Age in middle and northern Sweden.

Northern Connections : Interregional Contacts in Bronze Age Northern and Middle Sweden

Ingår i: Open Archaeology. - : Walter de Gruyter GmbH. - 2300-6560. ; 6:1, s. 151-171
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article examines northern connections in the Nordic Bronze Age, focusing on interregional contacts in middle and northern Sweden. In the article, we argue that it is important to incorporate a northern perspective in the discussions about the Scandinavian Bronze Age and its networks. We focus on the Malaren Valley region, especially the province of Uppland, and the northern parts of Sweden, in particular the coastal areas of northern Sweden. We discuss some aspects of the archaeological material, which have been used in earlier discussions of interregional contacts in middle and northern Sweden during the Bronze Age, such as the Haga mound outside of Uppsala, and burial cairns and bronze artefacts in northern Sweden. Furthermore, we discuss eastern contacts with areas in present-day Finland and Russia, and how these have been interpreted in middle and northern Sweden. In our view, there is a need to critically examine interregional contacts and the construction of regional entities and borders in the Bronze Age. In order to better understand the relations between north and south, it is necessary to critically examine the research history behind the present-day conceptions of regions and borders, as well as the political dimensions and power relations involved.

The Deductionis coloniarum rationes & causae (1668) : Building Arguments for Swedish Colonisation
- 2021

-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The dissertation Deductionis coloniarum rationes & causae, submitted at Uppsala University in 1668 under the presidency of Johannes Schefferus, appears to be the first contribution to the Swedish discourse on the subject of colonisation and colonialism. In this paper, a translation of the text is presented with a commentary and a list of sources. In an introduction to the translation, which discusses the text against the background of academic, political, and cultural contexts, we suggest that the dissertation relates to Swedish seventeenth-century colonial experiences in general, and, more specifically, to the colonial endeavour in Sápmi (i.e. the land of the Sámi) in the northern parts of Fennoscandia. Johannes Schefferus was one of the leading intellectuals of seventeenth-century Sweden, known for important contributions to archaeology, history, and philology. The writing of Deductionis coloniarum rationes & causae is put in relation to Schefferus’ influential Lapponia (Frankfurt 1673), a work dealing with Sámi culture, economy, religion and history, which was published during a period of intensive Swedish colonial expansion in Sápmi.

Conducting Archaeology in Swedish Sápmi : Policies, Implementations and Challenges in a Postcolonial Context
- 2021

Licentiatavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Since the 1980s, there has been a growing consciousness among heritage workers and policy makers about the management of indigenous heritage. Museums, universities, and other cultural institutions around the world have acknowledged that old work practices must be exchanged for new ones, where the indigenous peoples are allowed influence, stewardship, and interpretative prerogative. One result of these efforts is the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (2007).With the breakthrough of public archaeology and community archaeology in the 1990s, these ambitions have also been put into practice in multiple archaeological projects around the globe. In my research, I examine the heritage management system of Sweden, and how this system works in relation to the indigenous Sámi. Despite being on the retreat geographically for the past few centuries, the Sámi still dispose of about 50% of the area of Sweden for the grazing of their reindeer, which means the historical and cultural landscape of the Sámi is vast and the archaeological traces of their activities are spread over a large area.In Sweden, about 90% of all archaeological projects are due to land development projects and conducted by archaeological companies operating on a commercial market. The remaining 10% are research projects financed by public funding and mostly conducted by museums and universities. Investigating the Swedish county of Jämtland as a case study and drawing on interviews with ten actors with different perspectives on Sámi heritage, I study what happens when policy meets practice. The indigenous perspective appears to be considered less in contract archaeology than in research projects. Legislation, money, old habits, and the realities of everyday life obstruct indigenous influence. But my research results suggest that there are also ways of improving the system.

- 2018

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article analyses the role of material culture in the enforcing of a colonial order in early modern Sápmi (Land of the Sámi, the indigenous people in northern Norway, Sweden, Finland and the Kola Peninsula in Russia). In addition, the article focuses on the unequal power relations created through the collecting and cultural appropriation of Sámi objects. The 17th century saw a rapid growth of interest in the Sámi and their material culture. Clothing, sledges, ceremonial drums and other objects were collected for royal and noble courts of Europe, as well as for scholars and other collectors. This Eurocentric process of constructing Sáminess was concurrent with colonial attitudes towards non-European peoples. Empirically, the article explores the collecting of Sámi objects, clothes and religious/sacred material culture such as ceremonial drums and sieidis, as well as models and mannequins, and their role in the colonial rule and imperial representations of Sápmi.

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article analyses the industrial enterprise of the Dutch-born brothers Abraham and Jakob Momma-Reenstierna and their investments in Sápmi and the upper parts of the Torne River Valley, northern Sweden, during the second half of the seventeenth century. The aim is to explore the driving forces behind the industrial projects of the two brothers in a larger global and colonial context. With inspiration from recent critical studies on the simplifications, and Eurocentrism, in earlier understandings of the birth of modernity, we focus on the modernizing processes taking place in the upper part of the Torne River Valley as a meeting zone between local populations and landscapes and external capital. Metal extraction was booming in the seventeenth-century Sámi areas. Both the Danish-Norwegian and the Swedish Crowns invested heavily in the mining of silver, copper and iron. The scientific focus in archaeology and history has hitherto been very much on the state-governed projects, and limited interest has been directed towards the private enterprises. Moreover, there is also a need to study the roles of the local Finnish and Sámi populations, as well as the global connections, in these colonial industrial projects.

- Archaeology in Sápmi – the traditional core area of the Indigenous Sámi people in northern Norway, Sweden, Finland, and the Kola Peninsula in the Russian Federation – is a contested field of study, closely intertwined with issues of identity, ethnicity, and indigeneity, as well as conflicts over land and cultural rights. In recent decades, Sámi archaeology has emerged as a multidimensional and dynamic movement, engaged with the diversity of Sámi pasts and the complex interrelations between past and present. This chapter reviews current issues in Sámi archaeology and heritage management, and explores some of the political dimensions of archaeology in Sápmi and challenges that archaeologists and other researchers are facing in this field of tension.

- This paper discusses archaeology with and without borders in Sápmi, and the importance of the state borders in historical archaeology in Sápmi. How have the changing borders affected the field of archaeology and the understanding of the past in the Sámi areas?In the paper, I focus on the border between “East” and “West” in Sápmi, and discuss aspects of the interconnections of archaeology and politics in historical archaeology in Sápmi. There is a need to consider the historical and archaeological developments in the Russian part of Sápmi, which have often been neglected in Scandinavian historical-archaeological discussions on Sámi history and heritage. There is also a need to promote more co-operation between archaeologists in the Nordic countries and Russia across the present-day state boundaries.The study of borders in Sápmi can contribute to a deeper understanding of historical processes as well as contemporary heritage processes in Sápmi. There is great potential in future cross-boundary archaeology in Sápmi, as well as in historical-archaeological explorations of colonial processes and border construction in the North.

- The aim of this article is to explore aspects of the construction of entities, networks, and boundaries in archaeological research, focusing on the notions of Sápmi and Sámi archaeology primarily in Sweden. Sápmi, as a geographical as well as an ethnic, cultural, and political concept, can be seen as an interesting example of the interrelations between identity, politics, and the writing of the past in northernmost Europe. In the article, I discuss the notion of Sápmi and some of its historical and contemporary, political, and scientific contexts, and examine some of the debates and controversies concerning prehistory in Sápmi. What is the importance of archaeology in Sápmi, and what is the importance of Sápmi for archaeology?

- This chapter explores Swedish colonial and missionary projects in Sápmi (in present-daynorthern Sweden) in the 17th century, with a special focus on encounters with the indigenousSami population, and the consequences for relationships between “Swedish” and“Sami” identity, culture and history today. Early modern colonial history in northernSweden is in general afforded little recognition in Sweden. However, it is a history ofgreat importance to many people today, with connections to present-day conflicts overland and cultural rights. Early modern views on the Sami have had a great impact onlater representations of Sami identity, culture and religion. There is a need to analysecritically this history of “Us” and “Them” in the north. How can archaeology contributeto a more complex understanding of the colonial histories and encounters in Sápmi andnorthern Sweden in the early modern period?

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This chapter discusses archaeological approaches to colonial history and heritage, focusing on Indigenous archaeology, a movement of critical archaeology that has gained importance globally in recent years. Indigenous archaeology has been promoted as a movement aiming to challenge and transform traditional archaeology and heritage management; its goal here is to work for decolonization and the empowerment of Indigenous groups, with a strong focus on collaborative and participatory methodologies, as well as community-based and community-initiated research. The most influential debates on Indigenous archaeology have taken place in English-speaking settler colonial nations—the USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. What are the possibilities and challenges of applying approaches to Indigenous archaeology in the Arctic regions? What can be learned from debates in other parts of the world, and how can these debates contribute to socially engaged archaeology in the North? In discussing these questions, this chapter focuses primarily on Sápmi (the Sámi areas in northern Norway, Sweden, Finland and northwestern Russia) and Sámi archaeology and heritage management. These discussions raise many critical questions about the ethics and politics of archaeology, and the roles and responsibilities of archaeologists and heritage workers in colonial contexts in the Arctic and Subarctic.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper discusses issues relating to the contested colonial history and heritage in Sápmi, focusing on the situation in Sweden, as well as some of the challenges – but also possibilities – that archaeologists and other scholars are facing when dealing with this field of tension. In particular, the discussion focuses on early modern mining and collecting of Saami material objects in Sápmi, the collecting of Saami human remains in the 19th and early 20th centuries and current debates on repatriation and reburial. The paper takes its starting point in two interrelated research projects, funded by the Swedish Research Council, A Colonial Arena, dealing with early modern extractive industries in Sápmi, and Collecting Sápmi, dealing with early modern collecting of Saami material culture and its legacies today. In the paper it is argued that Swedish colonialism in Sápmi needs to be explored more in-depth, and that archaeologists need to deal with issues of Saami self-determination in heritage management and recognize and consider cultural rights movements and decolonization processes in Sápmi.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In recent years, there has been a large-scale boom in mining in the present-day Swedish part of Sápmi, leading to protests from Sámi activists as well as environmentalist groups. To the protesters, issues of Swedish colonialism and Sámi indigeneity are central, and history becomes important. Taking its starting point in the mining conflicts, this article discusses Sámi archaeology and claims for Sámi indigenous land and cultural rights. We argue that it is important to further explore the colonial history in Sápmi, and its meaning and consequences today. Archaeology can contribute with new perspectives on colonial histories and relations, and connections between past and present in Sápmi. At the same time, many issues concerning the ethics and politics of archaeology need to be discussed. Furthermore, in discussions on Sámi archaeology and heritage management in Sápmi, it is important to consider experiences from the international fields of postcolonial studies and indigenous archaeology.

Modernization on the Northern Fringe of Europe: The Historical Archaeology of Early Modern Sweden
- 2018
-
Ingår i: The Oxford Handbook of Historical Archaeology. - Oxford : Oxford University Press.
-
Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The Atlantic world looms large in discussions of how the modern world emerged, and what modernization was about; but there have been calls to engage with these topics from the perspective of ‘margins’. Covering large areas of Fennoscandia, the seventeenth-century Kingdom of Sweden represented a northern end of urban Europe, but also encompassed the mythical Lapland, homeland of the Sámi and of natural and supernatural wonders—a contested borderland between the European ‘western’ and Russian ‘eastern’ worlds. This northern fringe of early modern Europe saw dynamic arenas of interaction where new cultural forms were generated. These localized transformations and the transmutations of modernity are the subjects of this chapter. Studying early modern processes of modernization from the perspective of the northern peripheries can provide new insights and challenges, not only into the understanding of the early modern history of the Swedish kingdom, but into the general perception of these processes.

Sámi Mobilities in Colonial Spaces and the Right to Make a Home

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article explores Sámi mobilities and immobilities within colonial power dynamics. Discussing voluntary and involuntary Sámi mobilities across borders, it also touches on Sámi early modern material objects in motion, as well as the collecting and exchange of Sámi ancestral remains. Recent homecomings of Sámi material culture and ancestral remains – as part of cultural revitalisation, repatriation and decolonisation processes – illustrate the development of new mobilities and power dynamics. Challenging colonial notions of Sámi people as being bound to the perceived traditional Sámi domains, as well as the nationalist cartographies projected in much of earlier research, this article aims to stimulate a rethinking of Sámi mobility and agency, and the right to make a home. Acknowledging and examining the mobility and the homemaking of Sámi individuals and groups contributes to a deeper understanding of the complexities and transformations of Nordic colonialism, and ideas of borders, identities and belonging.

Sámi Prehistories : The Politics of Archaeology and Identity in Northernmost Europe
- 2009
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Throughout the history of archaeology, the Sámi (the indigenous people in northern Norway, Sweden, Finland and the Kola Peninsula in the Russian Federation) have been conceptualized as the “Others” in relation to the national identity and (pre)history of the modern states. It is only in the last decades that a field of Sámi archaeology that studies Sámi (pre)history in its own right has emerged, parallel with an ethnic and cultural revival among Sámi groups. This dissertation investigates the notions of Sámi prehistory and archaeology, partly from a research historical perspective and partly from a more contemporary political perspective. It explores how the Sámi and ideas about the Sámi past have been represented in archaeological narratives from the early 19th century until today, as well as the development of an academic field of Sámi archaeology. The study consists of four main parts: 1) A critical examination of the conceptualization of ethnicity, nationalism and indigeneity in archaeological research. 2) A historical analysis of the representations and debates on Sámi prehistory, primarily in Sweden but also to some extent in Norway and Finland, focusing on four main themes: the origin of the Sámi people, South Sámi prehistory as a contested field of study, the development of reindeer herding, and Sámi pre-Christian religion. 3) An analysis of the study of the Sámi past in Russia, and a discussion on archaeological research and constructions of ethnicity and indigeneity in the Russian Federation and the Soviet Union. 4) An examination of the claims for greater Sámi self-determination concerning cultural heritage management and the debates on repatriation and reburial in the Nordic countries. In the dissertation, it is argued that there is a great need for discussions on the ethics and politics of archaeological research. A relational network approach is suggested as a way of opening up some of the black boxes and bounded, static entities in the representations of people in the past in the North.

- Frågan om samiska mänskliga kvarlevor, som i dag förvaras vid museer och institutioner i Sverige, är ett kontroversiellt och känslomässigt och symboliskt starkt laddat ämne. Under senare år har krav på återföring och återbegravning framförts av samiska företrädare. Svenska kyrkan har även diskuterat frågan som del av en större försoningsprocess med det samiska folket. Företrädare för Svenska kyrkan har genom historien på olika sätt medverkat i insamlingen av samiska mänskliga kvarlevor, och frågan berör på många sätt kyrkans verksamhets- och ansvarsområden.Under 1800-tal och tidigt 1900-tal insamlades ett stort antal skelettdelar och framför allt kranier från gravplatser och kyrkogårdar som ansågs inrymma samiska gravar, i Sverige liksom i övriga delar av Sápmi. Efterfrågan på samiska kranier från forskare och institutioner runt om i världen var omfattande. Det finns många exempel på hänsynslös plundring av samiska gravar, liksom flera exempel på den samiska befolkningens motstånd mot gravplundringen.Det behövs en vidare granskning av kyrkliga företrädares medverkan i och allmänna inställning till utgrävningar eller plundringar av samiska gravar. Forsknings- och museivärlden har också ett stort ansvar att närmare granska denna historia. Men det krävs också en bredare diskussion kring samiskt självbestämmande i kulturarvsfrågor i Sverige, med hänsyn till internationella konventioner och deklarationer.

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- "Samernas långa historia i norra Skandinavien har aldrig ifrågasatts. Att den ifrågasätts i mellersta Skandinavien beror delvis på tolkningssvårigheter, mycket på grund av den starka påverkan från nordisk kultur som präglat området, i ökande grad från tiden efter Kr.f. Samisk kultur här kallas ofta ”fångstkultur”, vilket innebär ett slags osynliggörande. Mot nordisk-bofast ställs utifrån detta perspektiv samisk-nomadisk. Genom arkeologiska undersökningar på 1980-talet vid ett samiskt gravfält från 1000–1100-tal på Vivallen i Härjedalen kunde en boplats med typiskt samiska härdar, daterade till ca 800- och 1200-tal, jämte en avfallshög från1000-talet, lokaliseras. Utifrån detta lade det svensknorska ”Sörsamiska projektet” fram en tvåkultursyn samiskt–nordiskt för Mellanskandinavien, till Hedmark och Dalarna i söder. Den har av vissa kritiserats som alltför ”svart-vit”. Den har dock under senare år framhållits av en rad arkeologer för södra Norge, om än medett något modernare synsätt. Jag skall här bara ta upp några arbeten, som specifikt berör sydsamisk järnålder och tidig medeltid, ur den rika floran av arbeten om samisk arkeologi från norsk sida." Inger Zachrisson, fil. dr och docent i nordisk arkeologi, f.d. förste antikvarie vid Statens historiska museum, Stockholm. Hon har sedan 1970 arbetat med samisk arkeologi och historia från järnåldern och framåt och relationerna mellan samisk och nordisk kultur i äldre tid. Hon initierade och genomförde det Sörsamiska projektet, ett svensknorskt arkeologisk-osteologiskt forskningsprojekt, med bland annat utgrävningar av samiskafornlämningar i Härjedalen. Det resulterade bl.a.i den tvärvetenskapliga publikationen Möten i gränsland (Zachrisson et al., 1997).
