We offer a 3-year fulltime postdoctoral research fellow position specializing in stable isotope analysis applied to archaeological osteological remains of humans and other key taxa, focusing on the introduction and early development of agriculture in Norway. The purpose of a postdoctoral position is to build up a researcher profile that qualifies for a position as associate professor. The position may also offer additional skills that are relevant to the postdoctoral fellow`s future career. The fellowship will begin at the latest by 01.09.2025.
The successful candidate will take part in the project Social Complexity and Population Entanglements in Norway 2500-1000 BCE: Understanding new biomolecular datasets through a humanist lens (SCAPES) funded by the Norwegian Research Council (project no 354692). SCAPES is a transdisciplinary and collaborative project involving partners from three Norwegian universities: The NTNU University Museum, The University of Oslo/ Museum of Cultural History and Department of Archaeology, Conservation and History; the University of Stavanger/Museum of Archaeology. In addition The institute for Energy Technology, and The Max Planck Institute of Geoanthropology.
The successful candidate will be based at the NTNU University Museum’s Department of Archaeology and Cultural History and will have access to lab and office facilities at The National Laboratory for Age Determination (NLD).
Your immediate leader will be the Head of Department.
SCAPES addresses the transition to enduring agriculture, sedentism and social stratification that took place on the Scandinavian Peninsula during the period 2500-1000 BCE. This is a multiproxy project bringing together expertise in archaeology, genetics, isotope studies and geochemistry to provide an innovative research environment that can illuminate the social and economic processes related to population change. Tthe project combines the latest aDNA results with multi-isotope methods and traditional archaeological analysis, contextualized with a humanistic, theoretical framework.
The project is designed with 5 workpackages. The Postdoctoral fellow’s prime tasks will be related to establishing sets of environmental proxy data in WP1: Isoscapes, demography and subsistence in collaboration with colleagues. Results from WP1 will contribute to (WP2) investigating sedentism and ritualization as well as mobility (WP3), collectively resulting in a synthesis (WP4) to inform a novel perspective on social organization and land-use during the formative period of agriculture in Central Scandinavia.
Work package leader WP1 is associate professor Birgitte Skar. The full project description will be made available upon request.
The postdoctoral fellow will:
More specifically, the postdoctoral fellow will design sample-collection strategies to build an isotopic baseline for the relevant period of Norwegian prehistory that outlines core human food webs analysing animal and human osteological material from core archaeological sites
The postdoctoral fellow will establish protocols for data collection, extract collagen, carry out stable isotope measurements using state-of the-art in house IRMS equipment, write research manuscripts for international journals, and co-author interdisciplinary papers with collaborating partners. Career-promoting work for the University Museum can include teaching, but also archaeozoology, human osteology, or stable isotope analyses for other projects, instrument maintenance or outreach activities.
In conclusion, the postdoctoral fellow will contribute to the scientific goals of the SCAPES project and the EnvArch research group and related research initiatives. He/she will be involved in ongoing and new initiatives at the University Museum. The University Museum has an ongoing research collaboration with the Lundbeck Foundation Centre for GeoGenetics, University of Copenhagen, aiming at assessing the process of the introduction of agriculture and related human mobility.
The postdoctoral fellow holder will have successfully defended his/her PhD, authored high-quality publications, and demonstrated intellectual drive and cooperative skills in teamwork. The candidate must be motivated to contribute to the scientific goals of the SCAPES research team.
