Fornvännen 121:1 presents a multidisciplinary study of pottery from Dalarna, which shows that the craft appeared during the Neolithic but then disappeared for another 2000 years. Finds made at "King Øystein's Harbour" in Agdenes, Noway, reveals aspects of the importance of the town during the Viking Age. The journals of Johanna Mestorf throws light on the work of a prominent female Academic in the 19th Century, and her introduction of the Three Age system at Kiel Museum. Short reports on osteological analysis of three skeletons in a Mesolithic grave with signs of violence, an atypical chape from a Viking Age sword scabbard found on Gotland, a 3D reconstruction of an Iron Age hillfort, and an AI application for predicitive modelling of where it is most likely to find rock art in the Mälar Valley. Reviews of "Nonnebakken: Odenses vikingeborg" and "Fra vikingetid til Valdemarstid: Danmark 950–1200".
