Rickard Franzén the IMAGE of LOKI from PROOSA in ESTONIA: a MIGRATION PERIOD HIGH STATUS BUCKLE with an ELEVATED CIRCULAR FASTE Fennoscandia archaeologica XXVI (2009) Rickard Franzén THE IMAGE OF LOKI FROM PROOSA IN ESTONIA: A MIGRATION PERIOD HIGH STATUS BUCKLE WITH AN ELEVATED CIRCULAR FASTENING PLATE IN THE LIGHT OF SIMILAR BUCKLES RECOVERED IN SCANDINAVIA Abstract The purpose of this article is to examine an extraordinary Migration Period high status buckle recovered in a cemetery at Proosa, in the close proximity of the Estonian capital Tallinn. Within the cemetery the buckle belongs to a group of objects which all are decorated with animal art of Salin’s style I. With regard to the ornamentation this group has been linked to the material culture in the lake Mälaren area and on the island of Gotland. The buckle has never previously been published with detailed drawings of good quality and its place within the Scandinavian Migration Period art has only briefly been discussed by Birgit Arrhenius in an account from 1979. The aim of this study is to complement Arrhenius rendering by examining how the Proosa buckle relates – from a morphological and chronological point of view – to the few other known high status buckles of similar type recovered in Scandinavia. Of importance is Wencke Slomanns account of the closely related buckle from grave V at Snartemo. Furthermore, possible influences from the continental high status buckles will be investigated as well. The author defines a high status buckle as a buckle made of gold or silver or a highly ornate copper- alloy buckle. Apart from giving a general survey of the Proosa buckle and its morphological relatives, some of the features on these buckles which are likely to be endowed with highly symbolic meaning will also be discussed. These include the human head termination on the tongue of the Proosa buckle and the four legged animal on the tongue of the Snartemo buckle. The former feature can possibly be interpreted as a rendering of Loki, the god or giant from Old Norse mythology.

The first chapter defines the morphological characteristics for the Proosa buckle and its parallels – the Proosa group. The second chapter discusses possible influences for the overall shape of the buckles in the group. The third chapter gives a description of the ornamentation of the Proosa buckle and its relatives. Some of the features likely to be endowed with a highly symbolic meaning will be given a more thorough analysis. The disposition of the third chapter is ordered after the parts that constitute a buckle (Fig. 2). The fourth and last chapter is a summary of the conclusions of this study. Morphological characterization and function The shapes of the tongue, frame and fastening plate taken together constitute the overall shape of a buckle (Fig. 2). This will serve as a basis for the following morphological characterization. A Fig. 3.

These are: a Snartemo buckle has in common with the buckle from the war booty sacrifice Nydam II buckles from Sjörup (Fig. 2) and the buckle of (Fig. 4:1; Kjaer 1905: 189), a buckle of unknown unknown provenance from Denmark (Fig. 5:1), provenance from Denmark (Fig. 5:1; Müller hence the author would like to designate them 1880: 156) and a buckle from the war booty as buckles with an elevated circular fastening sacrifice at Ejsbøl (Fig. 12:1; Ørsnes 1988: Taf. plate. Furthermore, it is possible to add three 57–9). According to Slomann the morphological more buckles to this group – the mentioned characteristic these buckles have in common is buckle from Proosa (Fig. 1), a buckle from the the elevation of their fastening plates. However, war booty sacrifice at Finnestorp in Larv parish in the author’s opinion the rhombic and in Sweden (Fig. 5:2; Nordqvist 2007: 228) and octagonal fastening plates of the Nydam II and a buckle from the war booty sacrifice at Nydam Ejsbøl buckles clearly separates them from the IV in Denmark (Fig. 5:3; Jörgensen & Vang Snartemo buckle which has a circular fastening Petersen 2003: 281). In this survey these buckles plate. Furthermore, the Nydam II buckle also (Figs. 1–3, 5:1–3) will be referred to as the lacks the sunken interior of the fastening plate Proosa group (Fig. 6).

Furthermore, it can also be noted buckle (Andreas Rau, pers. comm.). that the buckles are of similar size and, with exception for the once silvered copper-alloy Dating buckle from Proosa, are all made of gilded silver.

An considers the Proosa buckle to be younger than identical contrasting effect can be seen on many the buckles from Sjörup and Snartemo. The of the contemporary high status buckles in the latter two are looked upon as contemporary by continental archaeological record. The only many researchers (e.g., Åberg 1953: 88–90; buckle which seems to lack niello inlay is the Slomann 1979: 115; Menghin 1983: 30–1), buckle from Proosa, however, it can’t be ruled belonging to the second half of the Migration out that niello previously has been present but no Period (D2). The buckle of unknown provenance longer survives. An alternate explanation may from Denmark (Fig. 5:1) is discussed by Olfert be that the later dating of the buckle suggests Voss (1954: 176–8) who relates it to the Nydam that ornamentations of this kind had gone out of style which, according to Voss, appears around fashion.

Gustav Adolfs Akademien för svensk folkkultur, Uppsala The great Indo-European horse sacrifice is one of the most enduring and widespread traditions in world history. This study presents a historic overview of Indo-European studies and shows the cosmological continuity of the horse-sacrificial tradition based on specific cultural innovations and ecological adaptations over time. It also sheds new light on cultural history through in-depth analysis of horse sacrifice in culture and cosmology. From Sintashta in Russia and the steppes to the legendary ashwamedha ritual in India and horse sacrifices in Roman, Greek and Irish traditions, the analysis finds that horse sacrifice appears to have been most successful in Scandinavia, with classic sites and funerals such as Sagaholm, Kivik and Håga in the Bronze Age and Old Uppsala, Rakne and Oseberg in the Iron Age.
