Abstract The thesis raises questions concerning prehistoric conditions in a high mountain region in central Scandinavia; it focuses on the human use of stone and on hunting principally of reindeer. An analysis of how the stone material was utilized and an approach to how large mammals were hunt­ ed result in a synthesis describing one interpretation of how the vast landscape of a region in the central Scandinavian high mountains was used. With this major aim as a base questions were posed concerning the human use of stone resources and possible changes in this use. Preconditions for the occurrence of large mammals as game animals and for hunting are also highlighted. A general perspective is the long time period over which possible changes in the use of stone and hunting of big game, encompassing the Late Mesolithic, Neolithic, Bronze Age and to a certain extent the Early Iron Age. Considering the manufacture of flaked stone tools, debitage in the form of flakes from a dwelling, constitute the base where procurement and technology are essential. The occupation of the dwelling covers a period from the Late Mesolithic to the Bronze Age. Possible changes in lithic use are discussed based on an analysis of debitage which includes testing variables reflecting various steps in the process of flaked stone tool manufacture. Also, the results are discussed from a methodological aspect; the classificatory aspect of analyzing large flake assemblages is implied. The result of the flake analysis indicates differences in the use of stone from the Late Mesolithic to the Bronze Age/Early Iron Age. These differences are interpreted in a three-part chronological division and as theoretically proceeding in a manufacturing process of five steps including acquisi­ tion, reduction through three steps and use of completed tools. A pattern, dividing the Bronze Age use of stone from that of the Neolithic and Late Mesolithic is discerned and discussed in terms of changes in procurement strategies and technology. Also, social organization is touched upon. When approaching the issue of hunting the character of data differ; archaeological and palaeo- environmental data together comprise the base for a discussion of possible changes. This is based on a theoretical model applied in a hypothetical research design. Archaeological categories of remains relevant in hunting contexts together with ethnographic and traditional hunting techniques are discussed. They constitute the base and illustrate possible variables in the testing of the hypo­ thetical model. Changes in the Holocene climate are clear, just as changes in the archaeological record are observable. Together these circumstances indicate changes in the hunting process.

Dette har ført til en gradvis bedring av vannkvaliteten med hensyn til forsuring i innsjøer, spesielt i Sør-Norge. Mange innsjøer i Telemark blir kalket for å motvirke effektene av sur nedbør. Når vannkvaliteten er tilstrekkelig forbedret kan kalkingen opphøre. Formålet med dette prosjektet var å vurdere behovet for fortsatt kalking i 339 kalkede innsjøer i Telemark. En statistisk modell er utviklet for å kunne estimere hvilken vannkvalitet kalkpåvirkede innsjøer ville hatt hvis de ikke var kalket.

  • Revisjon Av Konsesjonsvilkår for Røssågareguleringene I Hemnes, Hattfjelldal Og Grane Kommuner I Nordland
    Olje- og energidepartementet Postboks 8148 Dep 0033 OSLO Vår dato: 05.11.2020 Vår ref.: 200700445-123 Arkiv: 315 / 155.Z Saksbehandler: Deres dato: Ragnhild Stokker Deres ref.: Revisjon av konsesjonsvilkår for Røssågareguleringene i Hemnes, Hattfjelldal og Grane kommuner i Nordland - NVEs innstilling På bakgrunn av krav fra Hemnes, Hattfjelldal og Grane kommuner, åpnet NVE sak om revisjon av konsesjonsvilkår for reguleringene i Røssågavassdraget, inkludert Øvre og Nedre Røssåga kraftverk. Statkraft Energi AS er konsesjonær. NVE har lagt vekt på hensynet til naturverdiene som finnes i vassdraget og balansert dette mot hensynet til Røssågareguleringenes store betydning for kraftproduksjon og kraftsystemet. Vi anbefaler at det innføres nye og moderne standard konsesjonsvilkår for Røssågareguleringene. Vilkårene vil gi myndighetene hjemmel til å pålegge relevante, avbøtende tiltak. Videre anbefaler vi at det slippes en minstevannføring nedstrøms Nedre Røssåga kraftverk på 30 m3/s hele året, samt smoltutvandringsflom med varighet i tre døgn i mai/juni. Vi anbefaler også at det fastsettes begrensninger for effektkjøring for driftsvannføringer lavere enn 60 m3/s. I tillegg at vannstanden i Stormyrbassenget holdes stabilt høy i hekkeperioden for fugl. Vi foreslår at det pålegges konsesjonæren å yte tilskudd til et fond, ved årlige utbetalinger på 150 000 kr, som skal fremme fisk, vilt og friluftsliv i kommunene. Foreslåtte restriksjoner for vannføring og vannstand vil ikke føre til krafttap, sammenlignet med dagens praksis. Fleksibiliteten og regulerbarheten i systemet vil i liten grad bli påvirket.

The descriptions of the rivers are meant as a guideline only, and we urge you to always take precautions while paddling. Carry proper gear and check water levels before putting on the rivers. Certain rivers are under treatment for the salmon parasite Gyrodactulus salaris – disinfection is strictly reinforced and not following the guidelines could result in certain rivers being closed for whitewater kayaking. This guide is made with the help from Vefsna kayak club and Mariann Sæther. Additional information and photography has been provided by Ron Fischer, Torhild Lamo, Kurt Kvalfors, Øyvind Bakksjø, Axel Kleiven Lorentzen, Margrethe Jønsson, Matthias Fossum, Morten Eilertsen, Jakub Sedivy, Simon Westhgarth, Benjamin Hjort, Lee Royle and Lars Georg Paulsen. We welcome you to our beautiful region and wish you an amazing time on the rivers of the region. We appreciate the nature and are proud of our wild region – please respect the Outdoor Recreation Act. Water levels There are three main internet gauges in the area that will give you an indication of the water levels of the rivers.

  • Prehistoric Lithic Technology} Workshops} and Chipping Stations in the Philippines
    Prehistoric Lithic Technology} Workshops} and Chipping Stations in the Philippines D. KYLE LATINIS THE PHILIPPINE ISLANDS represent an important area for research of problems concerning prehistoric archaeology in Southeast Asia. These insular areas, located east of the biogeographic boundary known as Huxley's line, include a variety of tropical environments. These islands remained detached from the continental portion of Southeast Asia throughout the Pleistocene and Holocene. Archaeolog­ ical research has documented human occupation and adaptation from at least the Late Pleistocene and Early Holocene within these islands. Unfortunately, relatively little intensive prehistoric archaeological research has been undertaken in the Philippines compared to some areas in mainland South­ east Asia, Oceania, and Australia. Warren Peterson's dissertation (1974) focused on a series of sites in northern Luzon and represents one of the foundation stud­ ies in the Philippines for modern archaeology. Peterson's work has often been cited and his conclusions used for the development of models concerning prehis­ tory in the Philippines and Southeast Asia. Peterson's research was conducted during a period when behavioral reconstruc­ tions from site assemblage analyses were prominent in archaeological research. Specifically, Peterson attempted behavioral reconstruction from the analysis of stone tools from the Busibus/Pintu site in northern Luzon, Philippines. A reanal­ ysis of the entire Busibus/Pintu lithic assemblage has revealed problems with Peterson's initial analysis and interpretation of this site-problems that will be addressed in this paper. Lithic technology, stone tool manufacture, and selection and reduction strategies will also be explored. Finally, new interpretations of the nature of the lithic assemblage and site activities at Busibus/Pintu rock shelter will be provided.

  • The Distribution of Obsidian in the Eastern Mediterranean As Indication of Early Seafaring Practices in the Area a Thesis B
    The Distribution Of Obsidian In The Eastern Mediterranean As Indication Of Early Seafaring Practices In The Area A Thesis By Niki Chartzoulaki Maritime Archaeology Programme University of Southern Denmark MASTER OF ARTS November 2013 1 Στον Γιώργο 2 Acknowledgments This paper represents the official completion of a circle, I hope successfully, definitely constructively. The writing of a Master Thesis turned out that there is not an easy task at all. Right from the beginning with the effort to find the appropriate topic for your thesis until the completion stage and the time of delivery, you got to manage with multiple issues regarding the integrated presentation of your topic while all the time and until the last minute you are constantly wondering if you handled correctly and whether you should have done this or not to do it the other. So, I hope this Master this to fulfill the requirements of the topic as best as possible. I am grateful to my Supervisor Professor, Thijs Maarleveld who directed me and advised me during the writing of this Master Thesis.

H. Lundegårdh 1951 and 1953 b), I have described the bed-rock to the south of Göteborg (Gothenburg) in Western Sweden. I have been able to distinguish there between three Archean complexes, or cycles, viz. the Early Gothian, the Late Gothian, and the Karelian. Age determinations on radioactive matter in certain rare minerals (monazite &c.) endosed in final Archean (latest Karelian) pegmatite in this part of Sweden have indicated that the Archean evolutions here came to an end 900 a l 000 millions of years ago (A.

  • Establishing a Methodology for Determining Handedness in Lithic Materials As a Proxy for Cognitive Evolution
    EXPERIMENTAL ARCHAEOLOGY AND HOMINID EVOLUTION: ESTABLISHING A METHODOLOGY FOR DETERMINING HANDEDNESS IN LITHIC MATERIALS AS A PROXY FOR COGNITIVE EVOLUTION by Lana Ruck A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of The Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, FL December 2014 Copyright 2014 by Lana Ruck ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my thesis committee members, Dr. Douglas Broadfield, Dr. Clifford Brown, and Dr. Kate Detwiler, for their constant support and help with developing this project, as well as the head of the Department of Anthropology, Dr. Michael Harris, for his insights. This project would not have been possible without the help of my volunteer flintknappers: Ralph Conrad, Mike Cook, Scott Hartsel, Ed Moser, and Owen Sims, and my raw materials suppliers: Curtis Smith and Elliot Collins. I would also like to thank Miki Matrullo and Katherine Sloate for cataloging my handaxes and flakes and aiding me in creating a blind study. Special thanks to Justin Colón and Dr. Clifford Brown for assessing a random sample of my flakes, adding objectivity to this study. Finally, I would like to thank Dr. Natalie Uomini for her constant help and support of my project. iv ABSTRACT Author: Lana Ruck Title: Experimental Archaeology and Hominid Evolution: Establishing a Methodology for Determining Handedness in Lithic Materials as a Proxy for Cognitive Evolution Institution: Florida Atlantic University Thesis Advisor: Dr. Douglas Broadfield Degree: Master of Arts Year: 2014 Human handedness is likely related to brain lateralization and major cognitive innovations in human evolution.
