Skuggi in Hörgárdalur, N. Iceland: Preliminary report of the 2008/2009 archaeofauna. (2010)
DOCUMENT Full-Text
In 2008, the author together with Þóra Pétursdóttir from FSÍ cored the Skuggi site and located and tested a medieval midden. In 2009, a larger scale midden excavation was carried out. The trenched midden and especially its underlying structure are remains of the original site settlement, with other structures possibly associated with later site activities mentioned in written sources (Hreiðarsdóttir 2008:233, some information in English in Harrison et al 2010). Radiocarbon analysis dates the...

A Small Archaeofauna from Context 714 Þingvellir (Thingvellir), Iceland (2014)
DOCUMENT Full-Text

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...
