The Baltic Sea is a semi-enclosed shelf sea whose central deep basins have been highly prone to deoxygenation during its Holocene history, as shown previously by numerous paleoenvironmental studies.

This data originated from subfossil and modern pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) mate- rials comprising a continuous dendroclimatic record over the past millennium. Calibrating and verify- ing the MXD chronologies against the instrumental temperature data showed a promising opportunity to reconstruct warm-season (May through September) temperature variability. A new palaeotempera- ture record correlated statistically significantly with the long instrumental temperature records in the region and adjacent areas since the 1740s. Comparisons with tree-ring based (MXD and tree-ring width) reconstructions from northern Fennoscandia and northern Finland exhibited consistent summer temperature variations through the Medieval Climate Anomaly, Little Ice Age, and the 20th century warmth. A culmination of the LIA cooling during the early 18th century appeared consistently with the Maunder Minimum, when the solar activity was drastically reduced.

  • The Role of the Kalevala in Finnish Culture and Politics URPO VENTO Finnish Literature Society, Finland
    Nordic Journal of African Studies 1(2): 82–93 (1992) The Role of the Kalevala in Finnish Culture and Politics URPO VENTO Finnish Literature Society, Finland The question has frequently been asked: would Finland exist as a nation state without Lönnrot's Kalevala? There is no need to answer this, but perhaps we may assume that sooner or later someone would have written the books which would have formed the necessary building material for the national identity of the Finns. During the mid 1980s, when the 150th anniversary of the Kalevala was being celebrated in Finland, several international seminars were held and thousands of pages of research and articles were published. At that time some studies appeared in which the birth of the nation state was examined from a pan-European perspective. SMALL NATION STATES "The nation state - an independent political unit whose people share a common language and believe they have a common cultural heritage - is essentially a nineteenth-century invention, based on eighteenth-century philosophy, and which became a reality for the most part in either the late nineteenth or early twentieth century. The circumstances in which this process took place were for the most part marked by the decline of great empires whose centralised sources of power and antiquated methods of administrations prevented an effective response to economic and social change, and better education, with all the aspirations for freedom of thought and political action that accompany such changes." Thus said Professor Michael Branch (University of London) at a conference on the literatures of the Uralic peoples held in Finland in the summer of 1991.

On analüüsitud Valkena kloostri rajamise põhjusi ja asukohavalikut ning selle maavaldusi Järva- ja Virumaal, samuti Gotlandi Roma ning Daugavgrīva kloostri omandit tänapäevasel Harjumaal. Eesti alal tegutsenud tsistertslasi on ajaloouurijad seostanud peamiselt ristisõja ja misjonitegevusega. Samas esineb neid 13. sajandi esimese poole dokumentides erakordselt vähe, sagedasemaks muutuvad mainimised alles sajandi teisel poolel.1 Selleks ajaks oli aga ristisõda Eesti alal oma aktuaalsuse kaotanud ja tsistertslaste ordu loovutanud oma senise juhtpositsiooni kerjusordudele. Silma torkab ka asja- olu, et tsistertslaste maavaldused jäid Taani kuninga haldusalasse, ainus munga- klooster rajati Tartu piiskopkonda, ja kui eristaatusega Järvamaa kõrvale jätta, siis Saksa Ordu alale 13. sajandil tsistertslasi ei lastud. Selline olukord ärgitab tee- masse rohkem süvenema ja otsima neid põhjusi, miks võõras piirkonnas kanda kin- nitades tehti just selliseid asukohavalikuid ning mis rolli valged mungad 13. sajandi Eesti ühiskonnas mängisid.

In this work I present a method for locating linked data to preserve which functions even when the URI the user wishes to preserve does not resolve (i.e. is broken/not RDF) and an application for monitoring and preserving the data. This work is based upon the principle of adapting ideas from hypermedia link integrity in order to apply them to the Semantic Web.

    42 Kas Harju- ja Virumaa vahel oli otsetee ehk kui vana on Narva maantee? Tõnu Raid, kartograaf ja teedeajaloo uurija Ajaloolase Paul Johanseni väitel polnud 13. sajandi algul, eestlaste ristimise ajal, otseteed Tallinnast Narva olemas, äärmisel juhul oli see tee kasutusel talveteena1. Oma raamatus „Die Estlandliste des Liber Census Daniae” kirjutab ta, et külad nii Harju- kui Virumaal on ristitud ja andmed nende kohta kirja pandud sügistalvel 1219–1220. Seega tuleb vähemalt sama vanaks pidada ka maantee olemasolu Harjumaal lõigul Tallinn–Kolga. Seda teed mööda toimusid ristimiskäigud A, B ja C ning ristiti külad alates Irust kuni Kahala, Kalamäe, Uuri ja Kullavani. Virumaa ristimine algas kahest suunast, Toolsest ja Ohepalust, mistõttu seal nii selget ühte ristimiskäiku jälgida ei saa. Ristimine toimus peamiselt mööda maakonnasiseseid kihelkondlikke teid. Teiselt poolt on teada, et Virumaal asuva ida-läänesuunalise 143 km pikkuse peatee (praegune Narva maantee) ääres või vahetus läheduses asub 29 küla, mis on oma kohal püsinud nüüdseks juba peaaegu 800 aastat. Viimastel aegadel saabub aga selle tee äärest üha uusi arheoloogilisi leide, mis tõestavad asustuse olemasolu samal joonel ligi tuhat aastat varem. Harju- ja Virumaa vahele jääb Viru mets (omaaegse nimega Wirisch wold), mis ulatub 18–20 km lõiguna Kolga mõisast Harjus kuni Loobu külani Virus. Selle metsa läbimine polnudki Johanseni ja tema järel paljude teiste (Endel Varep2, Väino Einer3) arvates tol ajal võimalik. 1 Paul Johansen. Die Estlandliste des Liber Census Daniae.

Pole ju Saulepi mingi tuntud kohake Eestis. Pole siin käinud kuningad, tsaarid ega presidendid. Paar tanki on sõja ajal Saulepist läbi sõitnud, aga teadaolevaid suuremaid lahinguid Saulepi territooriumi aladelt ajalugu ei tea. Siin pole ühtki linna ega laiemale ringile huvipakkuvat ajaloolist mälestusmärki. Isegi kirikut pole. Tuleb aga silmas pidada, et Eesti territoorium pole olnud pidevalt ühtne.
