Supervisor has been Jan Risberg at the Department of Physical Geography and Quaternary Geology, Stockholm University. Examiner has been Stefan Wastegård at the Department of Physical Geography and Quaternary Geology, Stockholm University. The author is responsible for the contents of this thesis. Stockholm, 4 March 2013 Lars-Ove Westerberg Director of studies Paleoenvironment and shore displacement in the central part of the Långhundraleden Trail Abstract In this study, litho-, bio- and chronostratigraphic investigations combined with RTK GPS leveling have been carried out to reconstruct the paleoenvironment in the central part of the Långhundraleden Trail. The area displays four shallow lake basins of varying morphologies. The basins are now covered with peat as a result of infilling and overgrowth. The emergence of the saddle-point, i.e. the highest point of the underlying minerogenic surface, was estimated to have occurred c. BC/AD. The isolation events of two basins, at c.12.4 and c.12.3 m a.s.l. west and east of the saddle-point, were dated to c.AD 20 and c.AD 30, respectively. By combining these isolation data with six previously investigated basins a shore displacement curve for the central part of the Långhundraleden Trail and the surrounding area, i.e. east of the Ekoln basin was constructed. The curve indicates an average regressive shore displacement rate of c.6.2 mm/yr since c. 3200 BC. Around 1500 BC, this trend was interrupted by a short period of retarded regression, correlated with the L4 event. The isolation ages of the basins in the Långhundraleden Trail appears relatively young when compared to an average shore displacement rate of 5.6 mm/year in the northern part of L. Mälaren, west of the Ekoln basin. As the area is dominated by a fissure- valley landscape, this discrepancy could be attributed to small-scale irregular tectonic movements, which caused faster uplift rate, i.e. 6.2 mm/year, east of the Ekoln basin. 1 Christos Katrantsiotis 2 Paleoenvironment and shore displacement in the central part of the Långhundraleden Trail Table of Contents 1) Introduction

Förvandlingar av kroppar och väsen i skandinavisk yngre järnålder. (Med en svensk sammanfattning). Abstract This thesis explores bodily representations in Late Iron Age Scandinavia (400–1050 AD). Non-human bodies, such as gold foil figures, and human bodies are analysed. The work starts with an examination and deconstruction of the sex/gender catego- ries to the effect that they are considered to be of minor value for the purposes of the thesis. Three analytical concepts – masks, miniature, and metaphor – are de- ployed in order to interpret how and why the chosen bodies worked within their prehistoric contexts. The manipulations the figures sometimes have undergone are referred to as mask- ing practices, discussed in Part One. It is shown that masks work and are powerful by being paradoxical; that they are vehicles for communication; and that they are, in effect, transitional objects bridging gaps that arise in continuity as a result of events such as symbolic or actual deaths. In Part Two miniaturization is discussed. Miniaturization contributes to making worlds intelligible, negotiable and communicative. Bodies in miniatures in compari- son to other miniature objects are particularly potent.

  • Sweden Travel Guide
    Sweden Travel Guide Orebro Castle in the autumn sunny day, Sweden Sweden is located in Northern Europe. Stockholm is the capital city of the country. Sweden shares its borders with Finland, Norway, and the Baltic Sea. Swedish is the official language of Sweden. The country is divided into twenty- one counties. Along with Swedish, English is also widely spoken in Sweden. Sweden is a member of the European Union since 1995. Sweden can be visited during both the summer and winter months. Remember to pack some good winter clothes, if you are going to Sweden during winter. The standard of living in the country is high and Sweden is an expensive country to visit. Sweden is a major exporter of articles like timber, copper, iron, etc. Some of the important international airports of Sweden are: Stockholm Arlanda, Göteborg Landvetter, and Copenhagen Kastrup. If you are in any of the neighboring countries like Denmark, Norway, Germany, or France, then you can reach Sweden by train. You can also reach Sweden by boat. Though Sweden is a big country, traveling by plane is an expensive affair, and it is better to travel by train or bus. Some of the tourist attractions in Sweden: Lapland wilderness Gripsholm Castle Skokloster Slott Castle Sareks National Park The Swedish Museum of Natural History The Kingdom of Crystal The Nordic Museum Getting In The different modes of transportation for reaching Sweden include plane, train, bus and boat. Plane Airways is perhaps the most comfortable way of reaching the country. The major international airport of Sweden is the Stockholm-Arlanda International Airport.

Th e solidi were acquired in the late nineteenth century by the co-founding president of the Swedish Numismatic Society, August Wilhelm Stiernstedt. After his death, the solidi along with 2,434 other coins were published as a coherent assembly, the Stiernstedt Ancient Coin Collection (Heilborn 1882). Th e entire collec- tion was acquired at a sale from the Bukowski auction house in Stockholm by the Swedish-Texan antebellum cattle baron and gilded age banker Swante Magnus Swenson the same year. Together with many other coins and various prehistoric objects acquired in Sweden, the Stiernstedt Ancient Coin Collec- tion was donated by Swenson in 1891 to the State of Texas under the name of the Swenson Collection.

  • Can Effects from Global Warming Be Seen in Swedish Snow Statistics?
    Examensarbete vid institutionen för geovetenskaper ISSN 1650-6553 Nr 90 Can effects from global warming be seen in Swedish snow statistics? Mattias Larsson - 1 - Sammanfattning Denna studie är ett resultat av en omfattande undersökning av snöförhållandena i Sverige sedan början av 1900-talet. Jag har för detta ändamål analyserat data av maximala snödjup och antalet dagar med snötäcke per kalenderår från ett 40-tal utvalda stationer. Dessa stationer har sedan delats upp på olika regioner varefter medelvärden har räknats fram i resp. fall. Datamaterialet illustreras här i form av olika stapeldiagram uppdelat på fyra följande kategorier; hela tidsserien, perioden 1961-2003, konsekutiva 10-årsmedelvärden samt en tidsserie med de mest högfrekventa svängningarna bortdämpade. För att kunna bedöma eventuella trender i de uppritade tidsserierna så har jag använt mig av de båda statistiska metoderna enkel linjär regression resp. Mann-Kendall's test. Tillhörande beräkningar redovisas på tabellform. För att svara på frågan om den globala uppvärmningen kan sättas i samband med de senaste 30- 40 årens övervägande snöfattiga vintrar i södra Sverige så har jag studerat korrelationen av snödata gentemot det norra halvklotets vintermedeltemperatur. Motsvarande beräkningar av korrelationskoefficienter har också genomförts för den svenska vintermedeltemperaturen Utslaget på testerna visar att det inte har skett så dramatiska förändringar i snöförhållandena på lång sikt. Magnituden på lutningskoefficienten för de anpassade regressionslinjerna tyder på att det maximala snödjupet och antalet dagar med snötäcke i medeltal har legat på en ganska konstant nivå under de senaste hundra åren. När det gäller maximala snödjup så kan man paradoxalt nog se en tendens till en svag uppgång för Götaland och norra Norrland.

  • Conducting Archaeology in Swedish Sápmi Charina Knutson
    Charina Knutson Lnu Licentiate No. 33, 2021 Globally, there is a growing awareness of the rights of indigenous peoples. Heritage is often at the heart of the discussions. The right of indigenous peoples to maintain, protect and develop expressions of their cultures, | such as archaeological and historical sites, has been established in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (2007). Context Implementations and ChallengesConducting Archaeology in a Postcolonial in Swedish Sápmi – Policies, Conducting Archaeology However, the implementation of these rights varies from country to in Swedish Sápmi country. This licentiate thesis examines how heritage management in Sweden relates to the indigenous Sámi. The study focuses on – Policies, Implementations and Challenges archaeological projects, i.e. surveys and excavations, and investigates to what extent the Sámi are included and their rights respected. in a Postcolonial Context The results indicate that the Sámi rights are partly respected in publicly funded projects. However, 90% of all archaeology in Sweden is conducted in a commercial context and linked to development projects. In such circumstances, Sámi rights are not always respected. Charina Knutson The study asks which processes and structures hinder the decolonisation of indigenous heritage management in Sweden.
