Cereal cultivation in Mykines, Faroe Islands AD 600 [oat, barley, avena, Hordeum].
1979
Johansen J.
This paper deals with investigations made by the author on some old, now abandoned fields in Mykines, the Faroe Islands. The results show that corn has grown in these fields - first oat (Avena), later barley (Hordeum). The beginning of the cultivation is radiocarbon dated to about AD 600. It is concluded that it was started by Irish hermits who according to the literature are said to have lived on the Faroes. It is assumed that the later cultivation of barley was done by Nordic settlers, but this layer cannot be dated.
