Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Grauballe Man was about 34 years old when he met his death. He died from a deep cut to the throat. His right shinbone was also fractured. He undoubtedly suffered a violent end -- he was executed -- and was then laid naked in a water-filled peat cutting in the bog. The ultimate sacrifice was made that day around 290 BC -- a human life -- to the supernatural powers or in the service of some other urgent cause. Few finds from Denmark's prehistory enjoy the attention and interest afforded by the public and the media to Grauballe Man, who is exhibited at Moesgaard Museum, south of Aarhus, Denmark. With this book in hand it is not difficult to imagine a person of flesh and blood who wandered around during the first centuries of the Iron Age, long before Caesar was born. Archaeologist Pauline Asingh of Moesgaard Museum presents the very latest discoveries about Grauballe Man, his life, his afterlife, his bog and the interpretation of him and his time. In telling his story she brings prehistory dramatically to life. Grauballe Man was about 34 years old when he met his death. He died from a deep cut to the throat.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The Grauballe Man, whose sacrificial death was determined to have occurred around 290 BC, is one of the most remarkable bog finds from Denmark's Iron Age, and has for many years been the centre of considerable attention. In fact when the Grauballe Man's body was found in 1952, his skin, hair, beard, nails, muscles and bones were so well preserved that he was at first believed to have been the victim of a recently committed murder! With the renewed scientific focus on the immense research potential in such and, an interdisciplinary team of international scientists decided in 2001 to undertake extensive examinations of the body. From analyses of his teeth, to his hair, to his stomach contents -- and even to a reconstruction of his face -- the research has provided an important insight and invaluable knowledge of life more than two thousand years ago. This publication, richly illustrated with 320 colour photographs, is presented in a language which makes it indispensable for archaeologists, anthropologists, museum conservators and pathologists, but it will also appeal to lay enthusiasts within those fields of interest. The Grauballe Man, whose sacrificial death was determined to have occurred around 290 BC, is one of the remarkable bog finds from Denmark's Iron Age, and has for many years been the centre of considerable attention.

Beautifully designed, this catalogue presents this Swedish/German artist who has her roots solidly planted in Scandinavia. A large number of the works making up the exhibition ôObservationsö are illustrated in this catalogue. This is her largest retrospective exhibition to date. She expresses herself in glass with a remarkable degree of strong personal presence, and in a rather avant-garde way. She uses her material to the utmost, but she also goes beyond glass. In her choice of materials she also uses graphics and bronze to express herself, which are also included in this exhibition. She transcends barriers in the mind in a provoking and observing way, etching and carving both figuratively and abstract into the glass., English/ Danish, Year2005, Illust. B/W9, Illust.
