I'm a Swedish archaeologist and osteologist, currently working in the UK. My research interests are mainly craft related, especially tanning and furrier work. Fur animals throughout the ages (species, utilisation, hunting and trapping methods, skinning techniques, trade routes etc) is a particular hobby horse. Other issues that have intrigued me are sheep sexing methodologies.

I also do Medieval re-enactment, although focussed on the textile working part rather than the battle and weaponry part.


My bibliography can be downloaded as pdf here. My CV will be available for download soonish.
