Abstract

In the first five centuries AD, the main iron-extraction regions in the Scandinavian Peninsula appear to have been the woodlands in Trøndelag, Jämtland, Småland, and from Agder and eastwards across Opplandene. Outside the Peninsula, iron extraction happened on a large scale in Jutland, in particular in the southwest, where bog ore is abundant ( Lund 1991 ; Voss 1991 ; Lyngstrøm 2008 ).
