peoples cribs in scandinavia..1500 years ago..

On this gloomy sunday afternoon i visited this reconstruction of an iron age settlement, located next to the university here in Stavanger. In my job i look thru soilsamples from postholes of prehistoric buildings such as these..and identify charred plant remains from household activities. its always fun to visit reconstructions. these houses are built on top of excavated house remains.... which was extra fun!!for me!! and its nice to see all the natural materials.. instead of plastic stuff. you know? back to basics! check out ma crib yo, got all the latest iron age technology of course....












alot has happened over the last 1600 years, between then and now
