Historic Swedish sailing ship slow to give up its secrets

<div> <p>The Swedish ship Vasa was supposed to be a beacon of military might when it launched in 1628, but it sank after sailing just over a kilometre, killing roughly 30 people  in the process.</p> <p>Since its recovery in 1961, the ship, its contents and the people who perished with it have become a valuable insight into 17th-century Swedish life.</p> <p>Now, an international team of researchers has looked closer at one of the skeletons, referred to as G, and have confirmed that it’s female.</p> <p>“Through osteological analysis it has been possible to discover a great deal about these people, such as their age, height and medical history. Osteologists recently suspected that G could be female, on the basis of the pelvis. DNA analysis can reveal even more,” says Dr Fred Hocker, director of research at the Vasa Museum, Sweden.</p> <div><a href="https://cosmosmagazine.com/science/biology/shipwrecks-habitats-microbiomes/"> </a></div> <p>“It is very difficult to extract DNA from bone which has been on the bottom of the sea for 333 years, but not impossible”, says Professor Marie Allen, a forensic geneticist at Uppsala University in Sweden.</p> <p>“Already some years ago we had indications that skeleton G was not a man but a woman. Simply put, we found no Y-chromosomes in G’s genetic material. But we could not be certain and wanted to confirm the result.”</p> <p>They were able to do that with a technique developed by the US Department of Defense’s Armed Forces Medical Examiner System’s Armed Forces DNA Identification Laboratory (AFMES-AFDIL).</p> <p>“We took new samples from bones for which we had specific questions. AFMES-AFDIL has now analysed the samples, and we have been able to confirm that G was a woman, thanks to the new test,” says Allen.</p> <p>Allen, along with AFMES-AFDIL collaborator Dr Kimberly Andreaggi, is now investigating the DNA for more detail about G.</p> <p>“Today we can extract much more information from historic DNA than we could earlier and methods are being continuously refined. We can say if a person was predisposed to certain illnesses, or even very small details, such as if they had freckles and wet or dry ear wax,” says Allen.</p> <p>The Vasa Museum, meanwhile, is collecting information for a book about the people who died on the ship.</p> <p>“We want to come as close to these people as we can. We have known that there were women on board Vasa when it sank, and now we have received confirmation that they are among the remains,” says museum historian Dr Anna Maria Forssberg.</p> <p>“I am currently researching the wives of seamen, so for me this is especially exciting, since they are often forgotten even though they played an important role for the navy.”</p> </div> <div id="contributors"> <p><em>This article was originally published on <a href="https://cosmosmagazine.com/history/vasa-shipwreck-female/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">cosmosmagazine.com</a> and was written by Ellen Phiddian. </em></p> <p><em>Images: Getty</em></p> </div>

Rise to royalty: Swedish Sofia’s journey from risque star to beloved princess

<p>Before she became Princess Sofia of Sweden, she was Sofia Hellqvist. </p> <p>Born in December 1984, she began making a name for herself while studying in Sweden’s capital, Stockholm. </p> <p>The royal started out as a glamour model and partook in risque photoshoots. One of her most outlandish was one she posed for at the age of 20 for a Swedish men’s magazine,<span> </span>Slitz,<span> </span>where she wore a boa constrictor as her own form of clothing. </p> <p>In 2004 she was crowned<span> </span>Miss Slitz 2004. </p> <p>The recognition from the bold cover earnt her a spot on a popular reality television show,<span> </span>Paradise Hotel,<span> </span>in 2005. </p> <p>The show required a group of single people to stay in a luxury tropical resort and compete to find their perfect match. </p> <p>The royal would not find the one for her until 2009, however, when she met her future husband, Prince Carl Philip of Sweden, at a busy nightclub. </p> <p>They both described their first meeting as “love at first sight”. </p> <p>Having studied accounting, global ethics and various other courses focussing on children’s rights, Princess Sofia received encouragement from her royal boyfriend to focus on more charitable endeavours. </p> <p>In 2010, she established the Sofia Hellqvist Project Playground, which supports underprivileged children in South Africa.</p> <p>When the news of their intimate relationship became public, critics thought the couple were not a good match. </p> <p>Princess Sofia said in an interview in 2018 the transition from local celebrity to royal an incredibly difficult feat. </p> <p>"I was met with an enormous hate storm, from people who had opinions about as a person, about my relationship.</p> <p>"I was surprised and it definitely affected me. I didn't understand that people had such need to express how badly they felt about me. It was very tough.</p> <p> "I don't regret anything. All these experiences have made me the person I am. I wouldn't have made those choices today."</p> <p>In 2014, the couple announced their engagement and it seems Prince Carl was head over heels with his soon-to-be-fiance. </p> <p>"I don't think I knew the magic of love before I met Sofia," Prince Carl said in their joint engagement interview.</p> <p>"But ever since I met her, I've seen how love can change a person."</p> <p>Princess Sofia said: "The first thing I noticed about Carl Philip was that he seemed very humble.</p> <p>"When I got to know him, I saw that he was incredibly natural, very intelligent and very humble."</p> <p>The duo married inside the Royal Chapel at the Royal Palace of Stockholm on June 13, 2015. </p> <p>Other royals from all over the world were there to witness the nuptials including Denmark's Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary, along with others from the UK, Belgium, Japan, the Netherlands, Greece, Norway and Germany.</p> <p>The couple welcomed their first child, Prince Alexander, in April 2016, and then later on, Prince Gabriel in August 2017. </p> <p>Scroll through the gallery above to see Princess Sophia’s life in pictures.</p>

Why “Swedish death cleaning” could be the key to decluttering your home and life

<p><em><strong>Rachel Connor is a Senior Lecturer in Creative Writing at Leeds Beckett University.</strong></em></p> <p>There has been a trend in recent years, both in literature and in life, for Scandinavian concepts that are encapsulated in a single word. <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong><a href="https://theconversation.com/the-danish-concept-of-hygge-and-why-its-their-latest-successful-export-67268" target="_blank">Hygge</a></strong></span>, for example – which is Danish for cosiness, contentment or well-being – dominated the publishing industry in 2016.</p> <p>Now, the new buzzword on the block is “dostadning” – a hybrid of the Swedish words “death” and “cleaning”. How much these fad words are actually a part of Scandinavian culture is debatable, but dostadning is the new phenomenon outlined in Margareta Magnusson’s <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em><strong><a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Gentle-Art-Swedish-Death-Cleaning/dp/1786891085/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1516265092&amp;sr=1-1&amp;keywords=the+art+of+swedish+death+cleaning" target="_blank">The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning</a></strong></em></span>. In Europe, the book has already occupied a good deal of reviewing space and according to <em>Time</em> magazine, <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong><a href="http://time.com/4985533/death-cleaning-declutter/" target="_blank">dostadning will be the hot new trend</a></strong></span> stateside in 2018.</p> <p>Magnusson’s book chimes with the current <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong><a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/deborahweinswig/2016/09/07/millennials-go-minimal-the-decluttering-lifestyle-trend-that-is-taking-over/#6c328eb83755" target="_blank">anxiety about clutter</a></strong></span> in the 21st century. Dostadning advocates the proactive and mindful clearing out of possessions before death. The idea is that it saves relatives the onerous task of making decisions about what to keep and what to throw or give away. The book reflects the simple fact that we are all living longer lives. This results, of course, in more stuff.</p> <p><strong>Digital death</strong></p> <p>But it also means we have more time to get rid of things. We can start planning for our death by slimming down what we leave behind – shedding unnecessary objects in favour of what we actually need. It is the antithesis, perhaps, of the ancient Egyptian tradition of being buried with things that might accompany us into the afterlife.</p> <p>Magnusson’s top tips for dostadning focus mostly on material possessions – though she suggests keeping a book of passwords for family so they can access online data more easily. But this is no straightforward task, given that more and more of our data – photos, letters, memories – as well as actual things – music and books – exist in digital rather than analogue form. And as more of our lives are logged and lodged virtually, chances are our relatives might not be able to access it.</p> <p>A documentary about this precise issue aired recently on BBC Radio 4. <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em><strong><a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b09jf1zb" target="_blank">My Digital Legacy</a></strong></em></span> was part of the <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em><strong><a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b084ys5v" target="_blank">We Need to Talk about Death</a></strong></em></span> series and featured terminally ill patients with an extensive digital footprint who rely on the internet – especially on social media – to connect to the world around them. The programme also heard from bereaved relatives who experienced difficulties in accessing data, including Facebook profiles, of loved ones after their death.</p> <p><strong>The death manager</strong></p> <p>My recent short story <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em><strong><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9g0eqBdyxw" target="_blank">How To Curate a Life</a></strong></em></span>, published by <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em><strong><a href="https://storgy.com/about/" target="_blank">Storgy Books</a></strong></em></span> in the anthology Exit Earth, deals with precisely this issue. Set in the not too distant future, the parents of a young woman killed suddenly in an accident try to commission Jesse – a “digital death manager” – not to curate her life but to erase it: to gain access to her files then destroy them.</p> <p>In this fictional world where everyone is required to dictate the terms of their digital estate, it is illegal for Jesse to tamper with the girl’s online content. And yet, the financial reward would mean freedom from his desk bound job forever.</p> <p>The story grew from an idea I found online about careers that will be ubiquitous in the future. Digital death management, it seems, is definitely set to become “A Thing”. And just as we now commission solicitors or will writers to oversee our material estate – there will come a time when people will also hire someone to clean up their digital footprint</p> <p>In our already busy lives, does tending to our online existence give us one more thing to do? Perhaps so. But it’s about taking responsibility for our own stuff. If we don’t make the decisions about what to keep or discard – whether actual or online – then ultimately others will need to. And if we don’t leave clear directions about where to find our digital content, it makes things tougher for everyone.</p> <p>As Magnusson writes, death cleaning is “a permanent form of organisation that makes everyday life run smoothly”. What better legacy to leave behind than to ease the bereavement process for the ones we love?</p> <p><em>Written by Rachel Connor.
