I, Achird, am mostly active at Wikimedia Commons and Swedish Wikipedia. My main interests are Archaeology, Norse paganism, and Progressive rock. For many years I have been working as an archaeologist in a museum in Sweden. If you want to know more about me and my interests you can check my user page in Swedish.

The Name Achird
[edit]Achird is the name of the star system Eta Cassiopeiae. In 1984 I started to write a novel with heavy influences of fantasy and science fiction. This story happened on a fictive extrasolar planet orbiting the sun-like star Achird A. Later on I started to use the name Achird as an alias at Internet.
