He lived for a while at Linnégatan 12 in Limhamn. The Paleocene bird Scaniornis was described from fossil bones aged some 60 million years or more, which were found in the Limnhamn limestone; it was apparently a waterbird and might have been an early flamingo relative. At that time, the Limnhamn region was located as far south as central Germany today due to plate tectonics, and as it was warmer and somewhat more humid than today had a climate more comparable to the French Mediterranean or the Black Sea. Skanska, the fifth largest construction company in the world, originated in Malmö/Limhamn. The Cristo Redentor statue of Rio de Janeiro, Brasil is partly built using Limhamn concrete.
