Three individuals, three stories, three burials from medieval Trondheim, Norway

Abstract: This article presents the life stories of three individuals who lived in Trondheim, Norway, during the 13th century. Based on skeletal examinations, facial reconstructions, genetic analyses, and stable oxygen isotope analyses, the birthplace, mobility, ancestry, pathology, and physical appearance of these people are presented. The stories are discussed within the relevant historical context. These three people would have been ordinary citizens, without any privileges out of the ordinary, which makes them quite… Show more

“…Computational systems are dependent on facial templates, mean tissue depth markers, and specific population data [ 2 , 27 ]. In this study, soft tissue thickness markers [ 1 ], lip prediction [ 17 ] and nose tip prediction methods [ 15 ] were used from studies with Brazilians in order to apply regional measures for better reconstruction efficiency [ 21 , 24 , 27 ].…”

“…The main purpose of craniofacial analysis and reconstruction of archaeological human remains is rehumanisation and promotion of audience empathy with people from the past. A number of projects have used archaeological facial depictions to represent historical, migratory populations (Hamre, et al 2017); re-present ancient human remains as people rather than artefacts in museum display settings (Crossland, 2009;Smith et al 2020); re-humanise ancient Egyptian human remains to restore a sense of dignity and personhood (Smith, et al 2019) and represent people from the past with facial differences (Smith, 2018;Wilkinson, 2018).…”

“…Ultimately, from a 3D model, it is possible to operate a face reconstruction of an individual that, if it is well-made (Lee, Yoon, Song, Wilkinson & Shin 2014;Suppersberger Hamre, Ersland, Daux, Parson & Wilkinson, 2017) can be an educational tool of enhancement for visitors and so an important instrument of public archaeology (Allen, 2014).…”
