Löfgren presents a mineralogical investigation of garnets recovered from the early medieval trading and settlement site of Paviken on Gotland, Sweden. The study examines the garnet material with the aim of characterizing its mineralogical properties and composition and thereby contributing to the understanding of the gemstones used in early medieval jewelry and craft production at the site.
