Hågahögen contained one of the more publicized grave finds from the Bronze Age in Sweden. The person buried in the main grave was assumed to be a man based on the grave goods, although the anatomy professor who examined the burnt bones explained that they could very well come from a woman. Our hope is to determine the sex of the buried person as the science of osteology has advanced in the hundred or so years since the bones were last examined. If it turns out that the bones come from a man, the conclusion drawn from the grave goods is confirmed; if it turns out that the bones come from a woman, it shows that the Bronze Age burial system was more complex. Even if we cannot say for sure about the gender of the individual (if there are only burnt bones from one individual in the main grave to begin with), we can get indications in one direction or another from the burnt bone material.
