    Situne Dei Årsskrift för Sigtunaforskning och historisk arkeologi 2014 Redaktion: Anders Söderberg Rune Edberg Magnus Källström Elisabet Claesson Utgiven av Sigtuna Museum SITUNE DEI Med Fornkåre genom Ryssland 2013 Rapport från den fortsatta färden med en kopia av en vikingatida båt Lennart Widerberg 1 I Situne Dei 2013 berättade jag om expeditionen med Fornkåre, en kopia av en vikingatida båt, från Sverige till Ryssland. Med start i Uppsala gick färden förbi Sigtuna och Stockholm. Vidare via Kökar, Helsingfors, Viborg och S:t Petersburg. Därefter på Neva, Ladoga och Volchov fram till målet, den gamla staden Novgorod, av vikingatidens skandinaver kallad Holmgård. Sammanlagd färdtid var 23 dagar (Widerberg 2013). Sommaren 2013 fortsatte färden från Novgorod söderut, först över den grunda slättsjön Ilmen, därefter på floden Lovat (fig. 1). Varför åka båt på Lovat? Floden är omtalad i den fornryska krönikan (också kallad Nestorskrönikan) som en del av “Vägen från varjagerna till grekerna”, dvs från Skandinavien till det bysantinska riket. Många forskare har dragit slutsatsen att svenska vikingar brukade färdas genom Ryssland med båtar och skepp längs detta stråk medan andra har ifrågasatt om det verkligen varit möjligt att ta sig fram på detta sätt. Figur 1. Fornkåres sjö- och flodfärd 2013 startade i Novgorod och avbröts strax söder om Velikie Luki. Den slingriga färdsträckan var ca 410 km. Avståndet fågelvägen är ca 260 km. Karta red. 82 LENNART WIDERBERG Figur 2. Fornkåre närmar sig Lovats mynning i Ilmen och träffar här på ett mudderverk. Foto: författaren. Fornkåre är 9,6 meter lång, byggd av mig som en trogen kopia av ett arkeologiskt fynd från Roslagen, den så kallade Viksbåten.

  • The German 290Th Infantry Division at Demyansk by Henning Nagel and Vance Von Borries
    The German 290th Infantry Division at Demyansk By Henning Nagel and Vance von Borries During September 1941 the summer advance into the Soviet Union by German Army Group North had largely ended. In the north, units of the Army Group’s 18th Army laid siege to Leningrad while to the east and south they stood against Soviet efforts to relieve the great siege. To the south, 16th Army entered the Valday Hills region, taking Demyansk on September 8th thereby securing Army Group North’s southern flank and establishing a link with its neighbor, Army Group Center. By the end of November the 16th Army conducted little more than local actions and the campaign in the area settled in to static warfare. The main German effort had shifted south to Army Group Center in front of Moscow. Yet, as Army Group Center began to close around Moscow, it too lost momentum and shifted to the defensive. Then the Soviets struck. What began as a limited counter-offensive against Army Group Center in December grew by January 1942 into a general strategic offensive that threatened to expel the Germans from much of the Soviet Union. Practically all German divisions in Russia were caught up in the winter campaign and at times each would find itself thrown back on its own resources. Little else would be available. In the Demyansk/Valday area all German divisions worked together and each played an important role, sometimes critical, in withstanding the Soviet tide. The story of the 290th illustrates how these divisions held together. The 290th Infantry Division (ID), part of 16th Army’s X.Army Corps in the Valday region, had been formed in March and April 1940 in the Munsterlager Troop Maneuver Area from newly trained north German personnel.

Recently declassified NKGB situation reports on Leningrad and Leningrad region from the Central archive of the Ministry of Defense were used as the information source for this article. The article deals with anti-government manifestations such as spreading panic rumors, anti-Soviet advocacy, listening to enemy radio broadcasts, distributing anti-Soviet leaflets and planning riots against local party and State authorities. Both urban and rural anti-Soviet manifestations‘ specifics are revealed in the article, as well as repressive activities of the state security service, due to the restructuring of the Soviet society during the first months of the war . We considered certain features of moral and psychological state of Soviet citizens at the initial stage of the German aggression against the USSR. Keywords: situation reports, spread of panic rumors, defeatism, Anti-Soviet advocacy, propaganda, repressive activities, NKGB.

    How to use the Atlas The Atlas has two map sections The Main Section shows the location of Russia’s intact forest landscapes. The Thematic Section shows their tree species composition in two different ways. The legend is placed at the beginning of each set of maps. If you are looking for an area near a town or village Go to the Index on page 153 and find the alphabetical list of settlements by English name. The Cyrillic name is also given along with the map page number and coordinates (latitude and longitude) where it can be found. Capitals of regions and districts (raiony) are listed along with many other settlements, but only in the vicinity of intact forest landscapes. The reader should not expect to see a city like Moscow listed. Villages that are insufficiently known or very small are not listed and appear on the map only as nameless dots. If you are looking for an administrative region Go to the Index on page 185 and find the list of administrative regions. The numbers refer to the map on the inside back cover. Having found the region on this map, the reader will know which index map to use to search further. If you are looking for the big picture Go to the overview map on page 35. This map shows all of Russia’s Intact Forest Landscapes, along with the borders and Roman numerals of the five index maps. If you are looking for a certain part of Russia Find the appropriate index map. These show the borders of the detailed maps for different parts of the country.
