Skútustaðir Midden Investigations Mývatn Northern Iceland 2009 (field report) (2010)
In June-July 2009 an international team (led by Ágústa Edwald FSÍ and Tom McGovern CUNY) conducted initial investigations of stratified midden deposits associated with the historic site of Skútustaðir in Mývatn in NE Iceland. In 2007 a joint FSÍ/CUNY NABO team visited Skútustaðir following the discovery of a patch of eroding midden by Arni Einarsson (Mývatn Research Station). Investigations in 2008 followed up on the 2007 results with a set of test trenches. The three 2008 test units (D,...
A Small Archaeofauna from Context 714 Þingvellir (Thingvellir), Iceland (2014)
In 2006 a small collection of animal bones (archaeofauna) was recovered from a pit fill from the farm and church site near the famous assembly site of Thingvellir in southern Iceland. The bone collection was from a pit (context 714) and was associated with pieces of hack-silver and three (?)silver coins of 11th century date. The analysis of the bone remains indicates that these were animal (not human) remains, and that sheep, pig, and a larger animal (probably cattle) were represented. The...
Status Report on the faunal analysis from the 2007 Midden excavation at Möðruvellir, Eyjafjörður, N Iceland (lab report (2008)
This status report is only a ‘work-in-progress’ statement and cannot be seen as final report of the archaeofaunal analysis from the 2007 Möðruvellir Midden excavation which built on and extended the exploratory trench from 2006 (Harrison & Roberts, 2007). The excavation was undertaken by Fornleifastofnun Íslands, FSI (Icelandic Archaeological Institute), under supervision of Ramona Harrison and Howell M. Roberts. The Möðruvellir project is part of an ongoing regional project directed...

Undir Bálabrekku Zooarchaeological Database (2006)
Small archaeofauna from two highland sites located above 400 m above sea level, over 100 km inland in the upper reaches of the Skjálfandafljót river valley indicate the early presence of human settlement in this far inland area. While heavily deflated, the site of Undir Sandmúla produced an archaeofauna from stratified context directly above the Landnam sequence tephra, probably dating to the late 9th or early 10th century. This collection is from a highly burnt ”fireplace cleaning” deposit...
Zooarchaeology and the archaeology of early Modern Iceland (2009)
This paper presents the bulk of existing early modern Icelandic zooarchaeological data together for the first time. The early modern period in Iceland was generally a time of great stress and hardship. These zooarchaeological data present a view of the responses to these hard times and suggest, contrary to a number of historical interpretations, that the people of Iceland often adapted to harsher conditions in dynamic ways. Given the growing effort in archaeology for this period in Iceland as...
