Dear Claire,
these publications may be useful, although I would strongly recommend
a reference collection in case of seals.

Baltic, doctoral dissertation, Stockholm Studies in Archaeology 21,
Stockholm
Ukkonen, Pirkko (2002): The early history of seals in the northern
Baltic. – Annales Zoologici Fennici 39, 187-207

Late Younger Stone Age of Arctic Norway, doctoral thesis, Durham
Yours
Christian
