“…Commonly, efforts are made by archaeologists to sex the figures as well as to attribute them to divine identities found in later medieval written sources (e.g. Hauck 1992;1993a;Watt 2001). Seemingly, almost every archaeological publication presenting and discussing gold foil figures, or any figure for that matter, concentrates on the figures per se and their possible identities, almost as if they were contemporary photographs (e.g.…”

Some interpretations have highlighted the gold foil figures as representing individual gods, whose names are known from later written sources (Hauck 1992(Hauck , 1993(Hauck , 1998, and some have also suggested that the gold foil figures depict shamans performing rituals (Back Danielsson 1999.

The ability to identify oneself has always been important, because people in all periods entered into relationships in which their role depended upon their identity. This must have been of great importance to long-distance connections in prehistory, in cases where people did not know the appearance of the foreign individuals they were to connect with. The aim of this article is to present an idea of how a system of identification may have been established. It is intended as 'food for thought' on the subject. Gold foil figures could have played a role in prehistoric invitation systems, the identification of a person's true identity and in the dependency upon magnates in southern Scandinavia during the 6th-8th centuries AD.
