Abstract [en]
In Britain, warships did not officially exclude women until the early 19th c. (Hacker 1981, p.657). The non-adult skeletons reported here indicate similar traditions in Sweden, as family members appear to have accompanied Swedish navy sailors and/or soldiers even aboard the large military ships of the 17th century.
