%X In this study Särlvik examines the archaeological record of southwest Sweden Roman Iron Age (AD 1-400) and Migration Period (400-600) to ascertain the kinds of social formations that existed in the region at that time. She takes a closer look at the artifacts, building constructions, and votive and burial customs from three specific areas: southern Bohuslän, central Västergötland, and south Halland provinces. The subsistence patterns varied with different combinations of farming, stockbreeding, fishing, hunting, and gathering. The evidence seems to point to household- or village-based manufacture of pottery and iron. Long distance trade was negligible (only 29 Roman objects over a six-century period.) Särlvik distinguishes between three different cultures in the region which were part of or connected to nearby cultures in Norway, Jutland, and southern Scandinavia.
