Title
14. VV2023. Metal detectors
Description
During metal detecting in the field in 2022-23, a total of 331 artefacts were recovered (Fig. 2). Of these, just over 10 were clearly datable to the Iron Age/medieval period. Previously registered areas within the settlement were given an even more clarification through the finds, and in several cases new find spots were added. This applies in particular to the immediate area around the Kasa hill grave field with fibulae, a fitting in the form of a small bronze mask and a fragmentary arm ring of silver, dating from the Migration to Viking periods (Appendices 6 and 7). In addition to this, further finds were found that suggest an even older presence in Vång in the form of fragments of a double button and a socketed axe from the Bronze Age.
