Description and organization of the collection Reference code NO KTM 1998-001 1.1 The Bengt Danielsson Library and Archives Bengt Emmerik Danielsson (06.07. 1921 – 04.07. 1997), was a Swedish born anthropologist, writer, political activist, and adventurer. He spent most of his life in Papehue, on Tahiti in French Polynesia. His lengthy political resistance against French nuclear testing on the Moruroa atoll in the Tuamotu Islands would in the end overshadow his fame as a member of Thor Heyerdahl’s Kon-Tiki Expedition in 1947. Upon his death, the remainder of his book collection, archives, and photo archive were transferred from Tahiti to The Kon-Tiki Museum in Oslo, Norway. Danielsson’s book collection was given as a testamentary gift to the Kon-Tiki Museum in 1979, but only transferred to the museum

  • 10 Robert Mobili: Thor Heyerdahl and the Udi People
    10 Robert Mobili: Thor Heyerdahl and the Udi people This article reviews the interpretation and research of the prominent Nor - wegian traveller and world-renowned scholar, Thor Heyerdahl, and his visit to the village of Nij in Gabala District, a place mainly inhabited by Udi, one of the autochthonous peoples of Azerbaijan. According to Thor Heyerdahl’s theory, Odin, who in Scandinavian mythology was chieftain of the Asi tribe, came from the Caucasus. He also gave a hypothetical inter - pretation of, and scientific credence to, the modern-day Udi being the rem - nants and ancestors of Norwegians. While meeting the Udi, Thor Heyerdahl learnt about their cuisine, ethnography, customs and national traditions. In the attempt to maintain identity and culture against the backdrop of world events some ethnicities have clearly disappeared from the face of the earth, while others, some relatively small in number like the Udi, have struggled for their independence, historical past and integrity and withstood the difficult trials that have befallen them. The surge of interest of Norwegians in Azerbaijan and of Azerbaijanis (including Udi) in Norway began with the work of the great Norwegian traveller, ethnog - rapher, archaeologist and scientist, Thor Heyerdahl. The huge interest of Thor Heyerdahl led him to Azerbaijan at the end of the 20 th century and only then to the lower reaches of the Don in Azov. The differentiation of the ethnogenesis of the Udi people constitutes a lengthy process which took place on the basis of contacts of various cul - tures of east and west. The Udis, whose origins and history have for nearly 200 years been attracting the attention of the academic world, are indigenous peoples of the Caucasus and Azerbaijan (as the historical Motherland).

  • Human Discovery and Settlement of the Remote Easter Island (SE Pacific)
    quaternary Review Human Discovery and Settlement of the Remote Easter Island (SE Pacific) Valentí Rull Laboratory of Paleoecology, Institute of Earth Sciences Jaume Almera (ICTJA-CSIC), C. Solé i Sabarís s/n, 08028 Barcelona, Spain; [email protected] Received: 19 March 2019; Accepted: 27 March 2019; Published: 2 April 2019 Abstract: The discovery and settlement of the tiny and remote Easter Island (Rapa Nui) has been a classical controversy for decades. Present-day aboriginal people and their culture are undoubtedly of Polynesian origin, but it has been debated whether Native Americans discovered the island before the Polynesian settlement. Until recently, the paradigm was that Easter Island was discovered and settled just once by Polynesians in their millennial-scale eastward migration across the Pacific. However, the evidence for cultivation and consumption of an American plant—the sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas)—on the island before the European contact (1722 CE), even prior to the Europe-America contact (1492 CE), revived controversy. This paper reviews the classical archaeological, ethnological and paleoecological literature on the subject and summarizes the information into four main hypotheses to explain the sweet potato enigma: the long-distance dispersal hypothesis, the back-and-forth hypothesis, the Heyerdahl hypothesis, and the newcomers hypothesis. These hypotheses are evaluated in light of the more recent evidence (last decade), including molecular DNA phylogeny and phylogeography of humans and associated plants and animals, physical anthropology (craniometry and dietary analysis), and new paleoecological findings. It is concluded that, with the available evidence, none of the former hypotheses may be rejected and, therefore, all possibilities remain open.

  • Thor Heyerdahl and Azerbaijan
    Thor Heyerdahl and Azerbaijan Conference in Baku, 26-29 October 2011 Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Viking_Expansion.svg) Introduction Thor Heyerdahl is probably the most famous Norwegian of the twentieth century, having had a long career as an explorer, writer and anthropologist. He was never tied down by borders between the different academic fields his work touched on. His whole life can be described as one of transcending borders: between countries and cultures, between academic fields, between what was thought possible and impossible. He is probably best known for his expeditions taking rafts or boats based on ancient designs on intercontinental journeys to show that pre-historic peoples could have travelled great distances. His attitude to exploration can probably be summarized in as follows: Ancient myths and stories are based on historical facts and could and should be used to illuminate the past. Ideas are best tested in real life, by trying them out instead of theorizing in an office. Today’s academic world is too insular. When investigating an idea, one should seek out collaborators across the normal academic boundaries: By cooperating, historians, biologists, archeologists and other experts from different countries and traditions can add light and their particular knowledge to topics that are too complex to be fully understood by one academic field alone. A general belief that ancient peoples travelled and communicated over greater distances than most established academics think. Heyerdahl visited Azerbaijan several times and spent his last years working on projects focusing on old connections between Caucasus and Scandinavia. This conference brings together scholars from different fields to discuss Heyerdahl’s ideas and to throw light on the ties between these regions.
