Hybrid spaces : medieval Finnmark and the archaeology of multi-room houses

Omtale

The book presents a research project which is a first attempt at a thorough and inter-disciplinary approach to understanding the so-called multi-room houses, a complex and enigmatic settlement structure confined to the northern shores of Finnmark. Challenging the mono-cultural interpretations, the authors' main conclusion is that these houses were used by rivaling groups and for different purposes. With references.
