Johannes Bøe (archaeologist)

Johannes Bøe (January 17, 1891 – February 1, 1971) was a Norwegian archaeologist.

He was the son of John O. Bøe (1851–1910) and Marie Nilsdatter Bjerke (1859–1953).

In 1921, Bøe received his candidatus philologiæ degree with the thesis Norske guldfund fra folkevandringstiden (Norwegian Gold Finds from the Migration Period).

In 1931 he received his doctorate with the dissertation Jernalderens keramikk i Norge (Iron Age Ceramics in Norway).

His best-known work, alongside his doctoral dissertation, is Le Finmarkien: Les origines de la civilisation dans l'extreme-nord de l'Europe (Finnmark: The Origins of Civilization in the Far North of Europe), which he coauthored with Anders Nummedal and in which they established the Komsa culture as having its own status in the Norwegian Stone Age.
