Description

Pryssgården in Norrköping is one of the larger ancient settlements in Sweden. People lived and worked here during the Stone Age and live and work here still. In this survey, the area and the archaeological questions surrounding it will be examined and
discussed from an artisanal perspective.

By re-examining the material from the excavations in Pryssgården from the perspective of artisanal expertise, new questions are both asked and answered. The investigation focuses primarily on the extensive ceramic material, and thus, the people crafting the clay.

Katarina Botwid PhD in Archaeology and Master of Fine Arts, works with interdisciplinary research combining ceramic art and archaeology.
