    VIKING AGE SILVER HOARDS IN IRELAND Regional trade and cultural identity Linn Marie Krogsrud Master’s thesis in Archaeology Department of Archaeology, Conservation and History University of Oslo Autumn 2008 Cover image: Unlocalized mixed hoard from Antrim c. AD 910 (after Sheehan 2001:54; with courtesy of Ulster Museum, Belfast) Acknowledgements First, I would like to thank my supervisor Lotte Hedeager for her constructive support and optimism. She has made this thesis seem, at times, almost easy to write. Secondly, my other supervisor Stephen Harrison deserves much credit for all his help: his knowledge of Viking Age Ireland and supply of hand-outs have been invaluable. A warm thank you also goes to Julie Lund for stepping in for Lotte. John Sheehan and Charles Doherty willingly shared their ideas and off-prints with me, for which I am very grateful. I would also like to thank Dr. Colmán Etchingham for his bibliography tips, and Unn Pedersen for providing me with the article on Woodstown. A special thank you goes to Zanette T. Glørstad for leading me to the Viking Age silver hoards and for supplying me with one of her articles. Many thanks go to Herdis Hølleland and Tale Marthe Dæhlen for proof-reading the final draft of the thesis. All the students at Blindernveien 11 deserve thanks for all the non-academic conversations in the lunch room, especially Anna Alexandra Myrer, Grethe Móell Pedersen, Gunnhild Wentzel, Maria Valum, Annette Solberg and Elise Naumann. Irish transplant Joanne Ó Sullivan also deserves credit. At last, I would like to thank my family and my good friends Suzanne Leidl and Anja Steinsland for all their support.
