- In 1994, the Tanum rock art and rock carvings were added to UNESCO’s World Heritage list. In the expert opinion of John Coles commissioned by ICOMOS, whose opinion became the basis for the World Heritage Committee’s decision, it was stipulated: “The rock carvings of Bohuslän are one of the treasures from the ancient world of the Nordic countries. Nowhere in the whole of Europe can such amount and variation in the vivid images carved into the rock surfaces be found” Coles 1994. On the website of WHC/UNESCO Tanum’s World Heritage is described as follows: ”The rock carvings in Tanum, in the north of Bohuslän, are a unique artistic achievement not only for their rich and varied motifs (depictions of humans and animals, weapons, boats and other subjects) but also for their cultural and chronological unity. They reveal the life and beliefs of people in Europe during the Bronze Age and are remarkable for their large numbers and outstanding quality.”

- This article presents some thoughts on the emergence of the archaeological science in the 18th century. My starting point is the debate that occurred in the wake of the discovery of rock art in the famous Bronze Age cairn Bredarör on Kivik in Scania, southern Sweden. Here we find one of the first documented attempts to formulate an archaeological method based on the study of prehistory without explicit support from historical sources – a brave attempt ‘to let mute stones speak’. The authors of this attempt, Anders Forssenius and Sven Lagerbring, introduced an innovative comparative dating method and a novel use of distribution maps. Either way, this bold attempt to formulate a free-standing archaeological method for the study of prehistory did not attain any direct followers, and it was several decades before these methods were revisited again.
