This book investigates the entanglement of archaeology with nationalism and its role in shaping Icelandic identity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrawing on four case studies, it examines archaeological remains, historical sources, and ethnological materials. It reveals how material culture has been used to reinforce nationalist narratives while also offering a framework to challenge them. By focusing on the intersection of materials, discourses, and histories, the book uncovers how archaeology has been implicated in a colonial-cum-nationalist rhetoric, influencing modern interpretations of the past.
