The project application concerns the analysis of animal bones (osteological analysis, carbon-14 dating and isotope determinations) from the Neolithic settlement at Karleby Logården in Falbygden. So far, investigations at the site have revealed an extensive and well-preserved animal bone material from the time around 3500-3000 BC, i.e. contemporary with the large gaiters in the area.Through new investigations that began in 2012 and will continue in 2013, we want to take new steps towards understanding what the Stone Age diet looked like, what cultivation methods were used and how livestock management worked. One aim of the investigations is to collect animal bone material, i.e. 5000-year-old food remains. We know that the site contains bones from livestock (cattle, pigs and sheep). By studying the content of different isotopes in the bones, we can find out, among other things, in which areas the animals grew up, and thus find out how the cattle were part of exchange systems that also covered larger areas. Through new detailed investigations, we can also obtain remains of cereals and other plants which, through various analyses, can provide important pieces of the puzzle in understanding the composition of the Stone Age people's diet. An analysis of the material can contribute to the understanding of the nature of Stone Age agriculture and how important cultivation was in relation to livestock management.
