Description
Research seminar held at the Dept of Archaeology and Classical Studies, Stockholm University, with the following abstract:"In this presentation, I present results from a study investigating sheep management and landscape use in Viking Age Scandinavia, through a zooarchaeological multiproxy approach. Using the marketplace at Löddeköpinge as case, a series of sheep mandibles were analyzed through zooarchaeological methods and through isotopic analyses of δ13C, δ15N, δ34S and 87Sr/86Sr. The results are discussed in conjunction with the marketplace function of Löddeköpinge as well as the political geography of the time."
