Gufuskálar

Part of: Iceland

This Gufuskálar archaeofauna comes from the 2008 and 2011 excavations at the medieval fishing station on the Snæfellsnes peninsula, in western Iceland. The material from 2008 is an unstratified and mostly hand-picked collection during the test-pitting stage of work at the site. In 2011 we returned and 100% sieved the material from the eroding middens.

Field reports and more information is available on the NABO website.
