“…Archaeological finds from ice are mostly associated with stationary or semi-stationary basal 'cold' ice, that is, ice that does not move or only moves very slowly at the substratum. In Norway, this type of ice is found in isolated stationary ice patches and in non-moving ice fields along the top or sides of moving temperate glaciers (Pilø et al, 2022). 'Cold ice' also exists at the base of high altitude glaciers and ice caps, which are frozen to the permafrost ground below (Haeberli et al, 2004).…”

“…When more finds appear, however, the original discovery may be seen to fit a pattern not previously evident. Since Ötzi was found 30 years ago, glacial archaeology has developed as an archaeological discipline (Dixon et al, 2014), with its own methodology (Pilø et al, 2022) and a deeper understanding of the complexity of archaeological ice sites (Pilø et al, 2021). There are now hundreds of sites and thousands of finds.…”

“…Central Norway and the southern reaches of the country have yielded a substantial archive of glacial archaeological information in the past years. In Innlandet County, more than 3500 finds have been collected through continuous work over the past 15 years [14]. The finds' dates range from 4000 BCE to modern times and encompass mostly organic artifacts which are rarely preserved at all in other archaeological contexts, much less in such pristine condition.…”
