Between July 31
st
and August 10th 2007, staff from Fornleifastofnun Íslands
continued excavation of an evaluation trench begun in the summer of 2006. This
aimed at investigating the nature and preservation of faunal remains at the so-called
Ash Hill (Öskuhóll) at Möðruvellir, in Hörgárbyggð, Eyjafjörður.
As in 2006, the key aim of this effort was to locate and recover animal bones,
artefacts, and environmental samples from a well stratified midden sequence at
Möðruvellir, in connection with ongoing archaeological work investigating local
subsistence strategies in late medieval Eyjafjord.
The trench was extended and deepened, chiefly addressing very deep early modern
deposits in the western part of the trench.
This work was initiated by Fornleifastofnun Íslands and funded by Fornleifasjóður.
The project was directed by Howell Roberts. Field work was supervised by Ramona
Harrison and Howell Roberts, assisted by Meghan Markey and Christine Forrestal.
This work was undertaken in collaboration with RALA (the Agricultural Research
Institute at Möðruvellir), and with Minjasafnið á Akureyri (the Akureyri Museum).
