Networks, Interaction and Emerging Identities in Fennoscandia and Beyond

This volume is a collection of articles based on papers that were presented at the conference Networks, Interaction and Emerging Identities in Fennoscandia and Beyond, 13–16 October 2009. The conference was held at the University of Tromsø in Norway, and hosted by its Department of Archaeology and Social Anthropology at the Faculty of Humanities, Social Sciences and Education. The University of Tromsø was the obvious choice of venue due to its explicit research emphasis on northern regions and indigenous identities, as well as its location in an area where hunter-fisher-gatherer populations persisted well into the second millenium AD.
