Studier kring Väinö Tanners vinterbyteori (Royal Power and Sámi Settlement Patterns. Studies concerning Väinö Tanner’s Winter Camp Theory) is a multi-disciplinary historical-archaeological book written by Swedish archaeologist Thomas Wallerström, with contributions from palynologists Ulf Sägerström and Eva-Marie Nordström (chapters 3 and 4). The book is organised in four sections: the Introductory Section (Chapter 1); the Winter Camp Problem (Chapters 2–5); Royal Power in Swedish Lapland (Chapters 6 and 7); and Concluding Reflections (Chapter 8) (as translated to English in the Summary p. 313–322). According to Wallerström, the book focuses on the geographical area of ‘northern Scandinavia’ although ‘northern Fennoscandia with a focus on present-day northern Sweden’ would be more correct. The main objective of the book is a ‘critical investigation into the validity of the “Winter Camp Theory” formulated by the Finnish scholar Väinö Tanner’ (p. 5). The book is a result of a research project led by the author, where the Winter Camp Theory was central to the project’s main hypothesis and research questions. The project’s results seemed to contradict the basic premises of the theory and Wallerström thus positions himself as an apostate to the Winter Camp Theory in the introduction. Wallerström considers the effects of the implementations of royal supremacy (‘the state’) in the north during the early modern period as an alternative and more promising path of inquiry (Chapter 1). The Winter Camp Theory is ascribed to Väinö Tanner and his synthesis of eastern Sámi societies (‘Skolt Laps’) in his cultural-geographical studies of the Petsamo district (Tanner 1929). Tanner’s theory is presented in the Introduction, and scrutinised in detail in Chapter 2. According to Tanner, the winter camp was essential to the eastern Sámi. While otherwise extensively dispersed in base camps in the siidas’ geographical area during the spring, summer and autumn seasons, all households belonging to the siida gathered in nucleated settlements during the four winter months, from late December to late March/early April. The eastern Sámi winter camp was the arena where the norraz, an assembly of family elders with a formal leader, decided legal matters and siida policies. The settlement pattern and societal organisation of the eastern Sámi in the 1920s were considered to be the last, decaying relict of an ancient pan-Sámi way of life. Tanner claimed that his synthesis gave insight into Sámi societies untarnished by influence of the modern national states. He also claimed that similar societies had existed in all parts of Sápmi. Wallerström’s investigation was carried out as a review of the Winter Camp Theory’s genealogy, its subsequent history of impact on the scientific study of Sámi (pre-) history, as well as being an assessment of the theory’s overall validity (Section 1 and 2). Sections 3 and 4 are devoted to Wallerström’s own cas","PeriodicalId":45030,"journal":{"name":"Norwegian Archaeological Review","volume":"52 1","pages":"179 - 181"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2019-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/00293652.2019.1675752","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44049342","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The volume introduces a series of innovative themes focusing on aspects of materiality, aesthetics, training and learning, cosmology, and technological change and innovation. The importance and interest of the topic are very broad. The discipline of archaeology is in these years fuelled by more archaeological data, by new stimulating theories, and by newmethods from the natural sciences to explore the archaeological items. However, these developments are often compartmentalised within each find category, and are rarely related to each other in scholarly discussions. It is to the volume’s great merit that it combines the categories pottery, metalwork and textiles in such a comprehensive way that the reader can truly see the developments and communalities across crafts. The overall design, structure and organization strongly strengthens the cross-disciplinarity of the entire research project, and makes the volume an extremely stimulating read. It is divided into three parts. Each part consists of an individual or coauthored papers on very specific case studies or topics of textiles, pottery or metalwork, and in each part, the three main authors first introduce the theme and conclude by reflections. In Part I: Raw materials: Creativity and the Properties ofMaterials, archaeological investigations are combined with new analytical methods from the natural sciences; Part II: Production Practices draws in research from experimental archaeology and from social anthropology;Part III: Effects: Shape,Motifs, Pattern, Colour, and Texture, highlights and discusses specific features such as certain recurring motifs and their potential cosmological meaning, or decorative effects and their technical explanations. The research in this anthology stems from a HERA project, awarded by the Creative Europe of the EUCommission in a highly competitive international call and peer-reviewed by experts. This is also a great quality of the book, because it does not simply rely on an occasional collaboration or a conference; the authors have worked together in a shared project for several years and this has matured the book and its conclusions considerably, and has resulted in a concise and coherent work. The achievement of the volume is that it has truly embedded interdisciplinarity in the structure of the book, in each chapter, even into the introduction of each section.

This paper argues that, in contrast to this expectation, there was a surprising return to narrating a past of binary sex and gender. Societal roles have continued to be imagined as formalised through structures based on biological sex, with men seen as active mobile agents, while women were passive and static homemakers. We argue that not only is this unhelpful, the archaeological evidence renders it incorrect. We highlight the inherent conflicts in the data to show that investigating sex and gender in the past is difficult with imperfect and complex archaeological evidence. It requires careful and deliberate consideration to avoid normative explanations. In conclusion, we propose that investigating mobility is a particularly effective topic for examining past gendered societal roles.","PeriodicalId":45030,"journal":{"name":"Norwegian Archaeological Review","volume":"52 1","pages":"148 - 169"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2019-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/00293652.2019.1697355","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45469799","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The inclusion into this field was facilitated by the understanding of heritage as resource, which has become the norm within cultural heritage management discourses and strategies. This understanding is increasingly sustained by an associated vocabulary of concepts that promote cultural heritage sites as economically and socio-politically beneficial, emphasising their value as resources for us. This paper explores what happens when this conceptual repertoire of resource thinking is applied to WWII Wehrmacht sites in northern Norway, a heritage that previously has been othered and excluded.

Can the overlay of hieroglyphic ‘property qualifiers’ onto distributions of materials and structural features derived from archaeological excavation at a Late Classic Maya site be considered a shake-up of normative methods of cartographic representation? While most countermapping efforts focus on landscape cognition of under-represented groups – and often are linked to Indigenous land claims or statements of landscape sovereignty (e.g. Wainwright and Bryan 2009, McAnany et al. 2015) – this claim to countermapping is entirely a projection onto the past. The pronounced reflexivity of countermapping efforts among geographers – whether it empowers or harms local peoples, whether it is a genderdiscriminatory process, or whether it creates boundaries where none previously existed – is absent from this study. Yet, this application of hieroglyphic ‘property qualifiers’ arguably does move towards common ground with what Johnson et al. (2006) refer to as critical cartographic literacy, which is a transmodern approach to cartography that is mindful of the call to critical consciousness issued by educator Paolo Freire blended with a desire to grapple with the colonialities of Western cartography, all the while forefronting Indigenous cartographies and ontologies. This brings us to the question of what an Indigenous cartography of Late Classic Maya communities may have felt and looked like and whether this study begins to approximate it? Globally, most archaeological research takes place in contexts that are ‘text free’ in the sense that there are no documentary sources – be they Indigenous writing systems, European chronicles, or other sources of information – against which archaeological materials can be examined. Ever since the decipherment of Classic hieroglyphic texts began to mature in the 1990s, hieroglyphs have provided extraordinarily rich insight on many facets of royal existence, including politics, dynastic histories, and social difference. Probing deeper, Stephen Houston et al. (2009) used texts and iconography to explore the aesthetics of colour and later Classic Maya relationality (Houston 2014), and finally the privileged position of young royal males who are both subject and agent of much that is glossed as Classic Maya society (Houston 2018). From this research and that of many others, we glimpse the decidedly ‘royal male gaze’ that is the positionality of the hieroglyphic record, which gives one pause about universalizing that gaze to all sectors of Late Classic society. Maya hieroglyphic texts contain nothing that approaches social history; the royal court was the be all and end all. For places that did not support a scribe who painted or carved in a durable medium there is scant mention in texts that are preserved in stone, pottery, or stucco at royal courts. Nor is there reference to the thousands of COMMENT","PeriodicalId":45030,"journal":{"name":"Norwegian Archaeological Review","volume":"52 1","pages":"137 - 139"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2019-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/00293652.2019.1692063","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49529226","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Control dating undertaken on burial mounds of known age confirmed that charcoal in the mound fill can at least be up to 3000 years older than the mound itself. As charcoal can survive in the surface soil layer for millennia, in spite of ploughing, bioturbation and frost, it may also dominate the charcoal pool of the grass or heather turfs used in the mound construction. Therefore, the article concludes, charcoal cannot be used to securely date archaeological features built with turfs and it is important to be aware of the possible presence of very old charcoal when selecting material for dating archaeological features, even those which otherwise would be judged unaffected by material from earlier archaeological periods.","PeriodicalId":45030,"journal":{"name":"Norwegian Archaeological Review","volume":"52 1","pages":"170 - 178"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2019-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/00293652.2019.1670250","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43353304","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Their explorations raise a difficult but fundamental question for any practising archaeologist: How can we use available archaeological methods – from artefact typologies to spatial analyses – and current archaeological evidence – a shifting category in its own right (Wylie 2008) – to generate more expansive and inclusive archaeological interpretations than those currently available? That is, can archaeology be done reflexively, aware of its own biases and blindspots, and recursively, using its own practices to strengthen itself (against, for example, Haber 2012, Gnecco and Hernández 2008, for whom the discipline’s basic subject matter andmethod are inherently colonial)? The general use of Maya property qualifiers in the recording system of Say Kah’s excavation database and the spatial comparisons of their distribution using GIS prompt a reconsideration of themost basic elements of archaeological research. This is both stimulating and necessary. As the authors note, they hope that their work is ‘useful to archaeologists working in other times and places’ and that their ideas ‘are translatable to settings that may not have the same types of ancient textual and iconographic evidence’.

It offers a huge range of possibilities and approaches, ranging from aspects of process, materiality, abstraction, craft... the list goes on. As such, it is always exciting to see a new volume with contributors from varied disciplinary backgrounds adding to the conversation. An awareness of working through and with creative processes has the potential to open up exciting new avenues of research. This volume began life as a conference session at the World Archaeology Conference (WAC) in Kyoto, 2016. As such, the list of contributors is refreshingly international, drawing on a range of experience and case studies. It is within these individual papers that many of the really interesting ideas lie. The first to pick up on, is the way in which creative processes can be used as modes of ‘thinking with’ or ‘thinking through’ different materials and techniques. This is explored by Fahlander in his camparison of graffiti on the shutters of shops in Stockholm with Bronze Age rock art located north of the city. He approaches this comparative discussion through the idea of ‘horizontal stratigraphy’; studying how a different markings and designed are layered between one another on a flat surface. This provides him with a fascinating drawing board through which to explore the notion of how images collect on a material over time (be it the shutter or a rock face), how we can see aspects of individual artists in these, the notion of the material or space as an integral part of the process, and to what extent these images or marks represent statements or symbols. In his curiosity of the creative process as a visual and social form, he creates a narrative that is both imaginative and informative. This was echoed in Wei’s chapter on epigraphy in the landscape, where calligraphic forms are found carved into rock faces in China transforming notions of scale and context. Here too we see an investigation of process probing at the nature of meaning in these forms: When do they transform from a collection of letters, words and symbols to what might be termed ‘land art’? Eroding the distinction between ‘art’ and ‘archaeology’ is where the most interesting commentaries emerge. Mármol Martínez’s piece on creativity within archaeological practice reflects on the relationships and perceived boundaries between archaeology/art/creativity/anthropology. He considers modes of interaction, reflecting upon the difference that thinking through things and going beyond visual modes can bring to archaeological thought. What is pleasing about this piece is its consideration of construction and destruction, giving thoughtful space to material processes of research at a variety of scales. Another chapter that captures these imaginative realms is Otte and Lemmen’s chapter on ‘Art and Thought’. What comes across here is the excitement of discovery; the delight of making contact with the past through materials.
