Anders Nummedal - one hour ahead of his time. Anders Nummedal is considered as an archaeological pioneer. In the 1910s, he developed techniques for surveying landscapes, involving systematic and physical examination of the terrain for Stone Age sites. This was in a sharp contrast to the ordinary procedure of doing Stone Age Archaeology at this time. Nummedal was in many ways different from the average pre-war archaeologist. His social habitus as well as methods for doing archaeology were, however, reproduced by the next generation of archaeologists, being part of the large social transformation of Norway form a peasant and fisher society to a social democratic welfare state. Finally, the analysis is concluded by a present example, intended to show some of the social-material thus somatic conditions that still affect the structure of the discipline.
