Beskrivelse
Discovered in 1864, the metal hoard from Pile in southern Sweden’s Scania region contains copper, bronze, and silver artifacts. This collection dates back to the early Nordic Bronze Age and stands out as one of the largest and finest sacrificial metal deposits found near water in the Nordic area.
An in-depth study of the earliest significant Nordic Bronze Age metal hoard.
The Metal hoard from Pile in Scania, Sweden offers the first comprehensive documentation, scientific analysis, and historical interpretation of this remarkable assemblage. Around 2000 BCE, the Pile site was connected to various locations both nearby and distant, playing a key role in the political and economic landscape of Southern Scandinavia.
This connection contributed to a charged atmosphere of tensions and historical significance. The book’s chapters present a 'history from beneath,' exploring the place, the artifacts, and the era, and culminating with an examination of the metals and the intersecting worlds present at Pile during the dawn of the Bronze Age.
