Archaeologists in Norway have uncovered human remains and structural artifacts indicating a 3,000-year-old ritualistic cult site near a highway expansion project. In a central Norwegian context, it’s entirely unique,” NTNU University Museum archaeologist Hanne Bryn told Science Norway earlier this month. “It points to a site of special significance,” explained Bryn. Analysis of the human remains showed the bones date to 1000 to 800 BCE, which puts them right around the time of the devastating mudslide that inundated the Gaudal river valley. Bryn and her team are now investigating an area on a plateau near the highway expansion.
