Prehistories

Welcome to the Museum of National Antiquities’ Prehistories exhibition.

Forntidsutställningen

Here history is made up of many different stories. Find out about eight different life stories from prehistory. These people lived in the Stone Age, the Bronze Age or the Iron Age.

Finds and objects help us to answer questions such as:

  • What were relationships like between men and women?
  • What was their view of death?
  • What did they do?
  • How did different groups in society live?
  • How did Roman objects end up in Swedish graves?

The more finds we discover, the more we learn about prehistory. The exhibition presents new interpretations of ancient finds. It also includes an ongoing research project investigating a prehistoric cloak with mysterious knife marks.

The exhibition is currently being extended.
