"The main purpose of this study is to address, with reference to archaeological material, the complex of structures and remains at Papinniemi in Uukuniemi, East Finland and the community that occupied this site, and to place them as broadly as possible in their relevant cultural context. Papinniemi is an example of the overall major change in settlement in the mid-17th century that led to the formation of several archaeologically interesting deserted dwelling sites throughout Käkisalmi Karelia. Owing to its diversity and good degree of preservation, the Papinniemi complex can be regarded as particularly significant archaeological remains of the Orthodox cultural sphere in Finland. The archaeological excavations of the deserted village have concerned the remains of a dwelling and a church, the cemetery, a field-clearing cairn and the location where a coin hoard was deposited. The archaeological material indicates both varied and intensive human activity in the area. The Papinniemi complex dates from the 15th 17th centuries.".…

Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. 328 pp. Includes: illustrations, diagrams, maps, bibliography. This book is devoted to the publication of materials obtained during archaeological excavations of the burial ground of Kalmistomäki in Kylälahti in the north-western Ladoga region in 20062009. The site may be described as a cemetery attached to a Karelian pogost centre at the north-western periphery of the medieval Novgorod Land. It was used by a population that was obviously very wealthy and had lively contacts with outside areas in different directions. During the four seasons of archaeological fieldwork carried out in Kylälahti, 93 burials were excavated. In 51 cases, diverse artefacts were found accompanying the burials: personal ornaments and costume parts. The cemetery is not only the largest in Karelia in terms of number of burials excavated, but also the richest in terms of number of burials with artefacts. The site under study is also exceptional in other ways than quantitative measures. For the first time in the archaeology of Karelia, materials of the 14th and 15th centuries are so distinctly represented that they allow us to reach to several highly significant conclusions concerning the evolution of burial rites in the region. A distinctive feature of the materials from the cemetery of Kylälahti is manifested in finds of Central or Northern European imports. Their presence among the Karelian complexes indicates the continuation of stable tendencies in material culture that had appeared in a more ancient period, as well as the direction of external connections. The finds suggest that the peculiar material culture of Crusade Period Karelia was not in the least abandoned in the early 14th century. The evidence obtained at the cemetery allows us to distinguish yet another period in the existence of the distinctive material culture of the area from the 14th to the 15th century.…

Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Early in his career, Ville Lenkkeri studied film, and film remains a strong influence. In one series titled Movies, the young Helsinki School photographer (born in 1972) investigated the relationship between cinema and photography; his latest, The World As We Know , employs a cinematic strategy. Here, he photographs paintings and scenes-within-a-scene, from murals in waiting rooms to three-dimensional dioramas in natural science museums, trompe-l'oeil art in settings he describes as 'public places to which people do not have intimate relationships, but still a relationship often the people in pictures have worked in these places for a long time. The presence of such a figure, a museum guard or a visitor, heightens the ambivalence the artist is looking for, keeping readers in the disturbing, unfocused zone between reality and fiction. Text in English. 143 pp. Short story by Robert Enoch. Overall nice condition.…
