Archaeological investigations in Mývatnssveit 2007 (Field Report) (2008)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Uploaded by: Tol Cherry

In 2006 a campaign of major archaeological excavations in Mývatnssveit, the area around Lake Mývatn in NE-Iceland, wound to a close with the completion of fieldwork at Hrísheimar and Sveigakot. Together with the excavation of Hofstaðir, which was completed in 2002, these formed the backbone of extensive archaeological fieldwork focused on the Lake Mývatn area which had begun in 1991, and which became subsequently known as the Landscapes of Settlements project.

DOCUMENT Full-Text Thomas McGovern. Sophia Perdikaris. Colin Amundsen.

During rescue excavations in downtown Reykjavík in 1999 nearly 100 kg of well-preserved animal bone was recovered in investigations at Tjarnargata 3 C by Fornleifastofnun Islands (FSÍ) directed by Mjöll Snaesdóttir. This bone collection (or archaeofauna) was largely sieved (4 mm and 1 mm mesh wet screen) and represents one of the largest archaeofauna recovered from Iceland to date. Analysis was carried out at City University of New York’s Northern Science & Education Center’s two zooarchaeology...
