Person

Born (1987) and raised in Lund, Sweden. BA 2011; MA 2012; PhD 2018.

I have experience from fieldwork and osteological analysis in the Mediterranean and Scandinavian area. In my research I focus on societal change and cultural rules of behavior, and how this can be studied by zooarchaeological analysis, i.e. the study of animal bones. I defended my dissertation titled "Waste management, animals and society" early March 2018. In my current project "Sheep O'hoy" I focus on the changes in the organisation of wool production and sheep husbandry as demands of wool and wool textiles increased during the course of the Late Iron Age. Recently, I published a book on animal husbandry in Iron Age Scania. It is available on the LU research portal.

I work part-time as a researcher, and part-time as zooarchaeologist at Sydsvensk Arkeologi.
