About Me
- P.V. Glob
- I am a 99 year old Danish archaeologist and typically introverted Pisces who works as the Director General of Museums and Antiquities of the state of Denmark and am also the Director of the National Museum in Copenhagen. I am most noted for my investigations of Denmark's bog bodies such as Tollund Man and Grauballe Man -- mummified remains of Iron and Bronze Age people found preserved within peat bogs. I am also a master of Danish cuisine. My anthropological works include The Bog People: Iron Age Man Preserved; Denmark: An Archaeological History from the Stone Age to the Vikings; and Mound People: Danish Bronze-Age Man Preserved. I am co-founder, with Asger Jorn, of the Scandinavian Institute of Comparative Vandalism. My father was the painter Johannes Glob and my daughter is Danish ceramic artist Lotte Glob. My most famous investigation was that of the Tollund Man, a 4th century B.C. Pre-Roman Iron Age man who was ritually murdered and thrown into a lake which subsequently became a peat bog that preserved him. Today I count him among my dearest friends.
