Person

I finished my PhD in historical osteology/bioarchaeology in May 2018 with my thesis "Health cattle and ploughs . Bioarchaeological consequences of the Secondary Products Revolution in southern Sweden, 2300-1100 BCE". In the thesis I examined in what way human diet and health was affected considering an agropastoral intensification in the latest Stone Age and Early Bronze Age. After my dissertation, my research has centered around questions of violence and warfare in the later Neolithic and Early Bronze Age as well as social implications of disability and care in past societies.

I am currently enrolled in two projects led by Malou Blank, Gothenburg University. We use cross disciplinary multi-proxy data to gain new knowledge about the humans buried in Late Neolithic gallery graves in east central Sweden as well as the spread and usage of these graves in relation to societal changes.
