En studie kring bronsålderns kulthus och deras kännetecken och landskapskontext / A study of the Bronze ange culthouses and their characteristics and landscapecontext

The design on the bronze age culthouse is very similar to the design of a common house construction from the Bronze Age. In addition to this, there ar very few similarities. Culthouses have not been used for the purpose of the accommodation or other secular context, this results in that the buildings lack the typical settlement finds. The study of the Bronze Age culthouses is an important aspect in the research on the population´s religious beliefs. As archealogists don´t have much knowledges about the Bronze Age religion and its religious beliefs, more research can be executed and a deeper understanding of both the religion and the culthouses can be developed. The culthouses from the Bronze Age that have been examined, show different characters in form of finds and remains. A summary of these findings and remains can create a clearer picture of culthouses and the findings that suggest religios activities.
