Kragehul Mose

An analysis of the Scandinavian, Roman and Migration Period war booty site, Kragelund, excavated on the Island of Funen, Denmark in the late 19th century. Based on the the evidence from the war booty offerings and a huge number of defensive structures all over Scandinavia, Iversen argues that Iron Age society in this region had an ideology of warfare to a degree such that it was an integral part of the very structure of society. This is a publication from the project The Iron Age of Northern Europe, a colaboration between Moesgaard Museum, The National Museum of Denmark and Archaeologisches Landesmuseum in Schleswig.
