Summary. The oldest boat depictions in rock art from northern Europe have previously been dated to about 5500 – 5000 BC. A recent discovery of rock art boat depictions at Valle in Nordland County, northern Norway, made in the ground technique, pre-dates the earlier known boat depictions by more than 3000 years. The rock art at Valle is dated by shoreline dating to be between 10,000 and 11,000 years old. The find has implications for the rock art material record, is likely to alter current views and have an impact on the research history of rock art in northern Norway. The boat is depicted in outline, life size, measuring more than 4 m in length. The closest parallels are the Arctic skin boats found in the ethnographic record. The settlement record from northernmost Europe during the Early Mesolithic supports a maritime and highly mobile strategy that would require boats and an advanced maritime technology. It would not be possible to settle the numerous islands along the coast without seaworthy boats. The boat find has implications for the appreciation of the maritime colonization of seascapes in northern Norway during the Early Mesolithic, being part of the pioneer settling of northernmost Europe after the Ice Age.

While the remains of the well‐preserved and excavated towns of Pompeii, Ostia and Herculaneum provide us with a fascinating impression of their once bustling economic life, the study of urban economic space requires a more extensive geographical and methodological framework. This paper investigates whether the systematic use of non‐invasive techniques at other, often neglected, urban sites can deliver a meaningful contribution to the study of Roman urbanism, especially by revealing previously unknown foci of commercial activity in the Roman city. To illustrate the effectiveness of certain non‐destructive strategies, including geophysical prospection and aerial survey, we focus on a specific type of market building that was quite common in the Roman world, the macellum. The case studies presented here demonstrate how non‐invasive archaeological investigation, often in combination with other topographic operations, can facilitate the identification of macella and enhance studies of economic architecture and space in Roman towns in Italy and the provinces.
