  • The Finnish Archipelago Coast from AD 500 to 1550 – a Zone of Interaction
    The Finnish Archipelago Coast from AD 500 to 1550 – a Zone of Interaction Tapani Tuovinen [email protected], [email protected] Abstract New archaeological, historical, paleoecological and onomastic evidence indicates Iron Age settle- ment on the archipelago coast of Uusimaa, a region which traditionally has been perceived as deso- lated during the Iron Age. This view, which has pertained to large parts of the archipelago coast, can be traced back to the early period of field archaeology, when an initial conception of the archipelago as an unsettled and insignificant territory took form. Over time, the idea has been rendered possible by the unbalance between the archaeological evidence and the written sources, the predominant trend of archaeology towards the mainland (the terrestrical paradigm), and the history culture of wilderness. Wilderness was an important platform for the nationalistic constructions of early Finnishness. The thesis about the Iron Age archipelago as an untouched no-man’s land was a history politically convenient tacit agreement between the Finnish- and the Swedish-minded scholars. It can be seen as a part of the post-war demand for a common view of history. A geographical model of the present-day archaeological, historical and palaeoecological evi- dence of the archipelago coast is suggested. Keywords: Finland, Iron Age, Middle Ages, archipelago, settlement studies, nationalism, history, culture, wilderness, borderlands. 1. The coastal Uusimaa revisited er the country had inhabitants at all during the Bronze Age (Aspelin 1875: 58). This drastic The early Finnish settlement archaeologists of- interpretation developed into a long-term re- ten treated the question of whether the country search tradition that contains the idea of easily was settled at all during the prehistory: were perishable human communities and abandoned people in some sense active there, or was the regions.

Svenskösterbottniska bönder inför Lapporörelsen sommaren 1930 konservativ reaktion eller medveten bonde- politik? Svenskösterbottniska bönder inför Lapporörelsen sommaren 1930 Lapporörelsen var den enskilt största av alla de anti- kommunistiska högerrörelser som verkade i Finland under mellankrigstiden. Också på den svenskös- terbottniska landsbygden uppstod en lappovänlig front sommaren 1930. I denna lokal- och till vissa delar mikrohistoriska studie presenteras nya förkla- ringar utöver viljan att stoppa kommunismen till att bönderna på den svenskösterbottniska lands- bygden tog ställning för Lapporörelsen genom att delta i bondetåget till Helsingfors i juli och genom att förespråka så kallade fosterländska valförbund inför riksdagsvalet i oktober. 9 789517 656566 Åbo Akademis förlag | ISBN 978-951-765-656-6 Foto:Bildström Johanna Bonäs (f. 1976) Filosofi e magister 2002, inom utbildningsprogrammet för nordisk historia inom fakultetsområdet för humaniora, pedagogik och teologi (Åbo Akademi).

  • Kaskisten Kaupungin Lausunto Koskien Pohjanmaan Hyvinvointialueen Kuntayhtymän Perussopimusta
    Kaskisten kaupunginhallituksen päätös 9.9.2019, §130 Kaskisten kaupungin lausunto koskien Pohjanmaan hyvinvointialueen kuntayhtymän perussopimusta Kaskisten kaupunki tuottaa tällä hetkellä perusterveydenhuollon sekä hammashuollon palveluja Suunpohjan kuntayhtymä K5:lle, joka toimii kuntayhtymän alueella palvelujen tilaajana. Kaskisissa toimii terveyskeskus, joka vastaa hoidonarvioinnista Triagen mukaan, virka- aikaisesta päivystyksestä sekä kiireettömästä lääkärinvastaanotosta sekä hammashuollon toimipiste. Onnistuakseen tuottamaan perusterveydenhuollon monialaisen toimintojen kirjon ostetaan palveluja ulkopuolisilta toimijoilta kuten naapurikunnilta sekä yksityisiltä. Kaskinen ostaa naapurikunta Närpiöltä esimerkiksi vuodeosastohoitoa, röntgen ja laboratoriopalvelua, sekä fysioterapia sekä apuvälinehuollon palveluita sekä äitiysneuvolapalvelun. Lisäksi yhteistyötä tehdään muita tutkimuksia tekevien yritysten kanssa sekä palveluja tuottavien yritysten kanssa. Kuntayhtymä K5:n kanssa yhteistyössä on siis alueellisesti järjestettyjä palveluita, joita Kaskinen myös hyödyntää. Tärkeimpänä näistä toimii Närpiössä sijaitseva psykososiaalinen keskus, josta ostetaan psykiatrian avohuollon palveluja, pähdekoordinaattorin palvelut sekä puhetarapian palveluita. Alueellisesti toimii myös palliatiivinenhoitaja sekä muistihoitajan palvelut. Kristiinankaupungissa toimiva K5:n geriatrisen yksikön palveluista Kaskislaiset käyttävät geriatrian, ravitsemusterapian palveluita. Yhteistyö muiden palveluluita tuottavien organisaatioiden kanssa on elintärkeää

  • Travellers, Easter Witches and Cunning Folk: Regulators of Fortune and Misfortune in Ostrobothnian Folklore in Finland
    Journal of Ethnology and Folkloristics 14 (1): 121–139 DOI: 10.2478/jef-2020-0008 TRAVELLERS, EASTER WITCHES AND CUNNING FOLK: REGULATORS OF FORTUNE AND MISFORTUNE IN OSTROBOTHNIAN FOLKLORE IN FINLAND KAROLINA KOUVOLA Doctoral Student Department of Culture / Study of Religions University of Helsinki P.O. Box 59 (Unionkatu 38E) 00014 Helsinki, Finland e-mail: [email protected]. ABSTRACT This article* is about the distinct groups that practised malevolent and benevolent witchcraft in Swedish-speaking Ostrobothnia in late-modern Finland according to belief legends and memorates. Placing belief legends and memorates in Mary Douglas’ tripartite classification of powers that regulate fortune and misfortune illuminates the social structure of agents who posed a threat or regulated it by means of their supranormal powers. Powers that bring misfortune dwell outside or within the community, whereas powers that bring fortune live within it but nevertheless may be ambivalent and pose a threat to its members as well. Threat towards the community was based on the concept of limited good, in other words the belief that there was a finite amount of prosperity in the world. The aim is to paint a detailed picture of the complex social structure and approaches to witch- craft in late-modern Swedish-speaking Ostrobothnia. KEYWORDS: witchcraft • cunning folk • folk healing • folk belief • benevolent magic INTRODUCTION This article concerns the folklore of the Swedish-speaking minority in late-modern Ostrobothnia, Finland, the aim being to study how various users of witchcraft were understood within the context of limited good in this Swedish-speaking community. I suggest that Mary Douglas’ (2002 [1966]: 130) notion of a triad of power that controls fortune and misfortune in a community facilities the drawing of three distinct groups * I wish to thank the two anonymous reviewers for their insightful comments on an earlier version of this article and Joan Nordlund for her help with language revision.

  • Coastal Communities on the Move
    Archaeology and Environment 26 Coastal Communities on the Move House and Polity Interaction in Southern Ostrobothnia 1500 BC – AD 1 Peter Holmblad Department of Historical, Philisophical and Religious Studies. Umeå 2010 1 © Peter Holmblad Illustrations by Peter Holmblad unless otherwise stated Base maps © National Land Survey of Finland. licence No. 051/MML/10 E-thesis: http://umu.diva-portal.org/ Cover: Coastal view in Kvevlax, Ostrobothnia Printed by: VMC KBC house, Umeå university Umeå, Sweden 2010 ISBN: 978-91-7459-068-5 ISSN: 0281-5877 2 Preface Several persons and organisations have contributed to my thesis project. First of all I want to thank my supervisor Karin Viklund and my second supervisor Mika Lavento (at Helsinki university). I also want to thank my collegues at my department. Philip Buckland made the paperback of this thesis; Johan Linderholm guided me through my soil chemical analyses, Jan-Erik Wallin performed the pollen anlayses; just to mention a few examples. I have had many interesting discussions with Radoslaw Grabowski. Thomas Larsson has contributed with valuable comments. Hazel Moesly has reviewed my English texts. I send my gratitude to all the amateur archaeologists in Österbottniska fornforskningssällskapet and in Laihian kotiseutuyhdistys that have supported my project by assisting me in the field. Pentti Risla and Kaisa Lehtonen have been two valuable collegues in Ostrobothnia. Ronny Smeds and Johan Björtin helped me with my mapping projects. Furthermore; this thesis had not been written without the important fieldwork that had been conducted over many years in Laihia by Esko Luoma and Mirja Miettinen. I have been financially supported by Svensk-Österbottniska Samfundet, Siri och Olof Granlunds stiftelse, Svenska kulturfonden i Finland, Etelä-Pohjanmaan maakuntarahasto and Kempes minnes stipendiefond.
