Personal Marks in Norway Page 1 Personal marks in Norway Page 1 Personal marks in NORWAY - AN OVERVIEW - By Hans Cappelen (Oslo, 2001) 1 Introduction We have a rich treasure of our thousands of old personal marks. They have connections back to our oldest written forms, they were associated with hunting and animal husbandry, and they were with the inheritance and ownership. personal mark has acquired its highly stylized figures from distant lands and ancient symbols; they can testify religion, magic and more. The individual personal marks can indeed have an extremely modest appearance, but most personal mark is composed of lines that have gradually evolved from certain basic shapes. particularly when we look at more personal marks together, we can draw long lines through the centuries, across borders and completely in Norwegian urban and rural communities. I write here mostly on the basis of personal marks in three books: the first is the "Norwegian Seal of Quality" which is part bumerkesegl Middle Ages, so we Strømmes book with personal marks from Sunnmøre. Streaming is impressive enough delineated and recorded details of approx. 7500 personal marks in Sunnmøre from time approx. 1500-1800, so his book is a rich source for the study of Norwegian personal marks. Last is the Koren Wiberg who wrote about. 110 personal marks from Bryggen in Bergen. Additional literature which I founded, is Wallem general article from 1903 about personal marks, some recent articles by Hans Krag, the important work of the Danish researcher Allan Tonnesen and several articles in Cultural Encyclopedia of Medieval bl. A. first archivist Hallvard Trætteberg and Swedish statsheraldikeren Gunnar Scheffer. Bumerkeillustrasjonene below is from: personal marks cheeks. Facilitated by Anders J.

Last: weapon Valer municipality. It is copied from the shield of the genus Bolts weapons from the Middle Ages. 2 What is personal marks There is some disagreement about how best to define what is personal marks. I decide to start with a brief and functional characteristics of personal marks. My purpose is to get the key characteristics of the most personal mark. A personal mark is a mark that consists of simple strokes without specific colors. With this brief definition I share the key characteristics of the two: (1) personal mark function characteristics and (2) personal marks look. It is these two characteristics that I write mostly about below. fact that many of the modern brands, "logos", falls under the definition,'s okay. Today logos for Planning and Building Services in Oslo and the Norwegian Shipowners' Association Personal marks in Norway Page 3 Who is it who used personal marks which characteristics? Anyway farmers on the west coast has the largest number of personal marks which are printed and published in Norway. , we can fairly safely assume that farmers elsewhere around the country spent as much personal marks. Moreover, the personal marks used by traders, artisans and other citizens both at Bryggen in Bergen and other Norwegian cities. , we have 1600's also personal marks written by hand on documents from miners in Røros. Rather it is from government officials, nobles, clergy and Royal just kept quite a few personal marks, such as the hand-drawn marks to the emperor Charlemagne and the Norwegian King Haakon 5th city Elsinore in Denmark have had their personal mark for marking of animals, and in German areas are personal marks for both cities and institutions such as churches and hospitals. Throughout Europe we can find bystempler on metal; they are close personal marks because they consist of simple lines and characterize the cities where they were produced. Why do we have so many personal marks of Norwegian farmers? There must be about a few tens of thousands over the years. despite the fact that the need was hardly so great to mark objects or to identify themselves using characteristics around the Norwegian farms in earlier times. use of letters and other written documents were well not particularly extensive prior into more modern times. Disposal of real estate and other legal transactions could in earlier times given orally by witnesses and the council. Nevertheless, farmers need personal characteristics, especially in connection with the seals used much like the signatures these days. The farmers would in 1591 and 1610 put their seal on the powers which they gave their delegates to the so-called "kongehyllingene". A more important use of the seal was when farmers served as jurors , ie judges on things, to attest documents, allocating taxation mm farmers had to attend and participate as jurors under things collections. This service was a duty and went round among farmers. Everyone was perhaps not as happy to spend their time on this. "The King" (ie central government in Copenhagen) had at least several times chastise jurors and enforce duties. From the 1500s became obligatory that all jurors should have signets to seal documents. Sometimes sealing occurred incorrectly, that when jurors sealed without knowing what the verdict was all about, or sealed with another man's signet. both 1568 and later therefore mandatory to jurors to "defend sit Indsegl" and it was punishment for abusing seal to verify lies, false or else that was contrary to law. seal was also used by farmers when they confirmed documents attachments thereto such as bilge and fogderegnskaper, mortgage and property books or applications to the king, and later on the written seams for disposal of real property. As written documents became more common, could those who had their own signets and seals, as well sign with hand-drawn personal marks. This is expressly stated in King Christian 5s Norwegian Act of 1687 in the provision 1-24-5 Personal marks in Norway Page 4 (signature on petitions to king) and 5-1-7 (signature of contracts). Signe seats were thus no longer as important to these types of documents. The use of seals with personal marks gradually took the final out of the 1800's, when people were content with only the signatures and seals no longer had any legal significance by the issuance of documents. Where did the word personal mark from? term "brand" can mean so much and recur again and again in Norwegian sagas and lovskrifter Middle Ages. word bomerke or "boemerke" supposedly comes from Denmark. "Bomerke" is used at least in Kristian 5s Norwegian Act from 1687. Norway In today's word bomerke been completely supplanted by personal mark. word with the letter u, we find hardly written records older than the 1700s. Famous Norwegian dialect forms include "Bumærkje" and "Bumark". In Denmark and Sweden, the word "bomerke" (with multiple names) known from 1400 - and 1500 numbers, but not before. During the Icelandic legal code, from the Middle Ages we find the word "einkunn" brand used as the characteristics of marking animals, so the word has probably been used in Norway. Should we have different designations for personal brands and proprietary notices ? Some believe that, among other things, they have both personal mark, and real estate brand in Cultural Encyclopedia of Medieval. Consistent wording and distinction between the terms, we have, at least not in Norwegian and there is hardly needed. A personal mark characterize a person even when it is cut into real estate because it shows who owns the property. Someone wanted to use the word "personal mark" (German: Hausmarke) just as the brand for individuals and movable things. Markings on the real estate they call "bolsmerke" (German: Hofmark). This wording is supposed occur in Denmark. In King Christian 4s edition 1604 of the Norwegian land law, the provisions of 6-38 (the right to pasture operation in common) the term "sætterboelsmercke." This word is the labeling of sæterbu, the boundary marker or both. I have not checked whether "bolsmerke" otherwise are used in Norway, and the corresponding provision in Kristian 5s Norwegian Law 3-12-3, only use the word "Sættersmerke". Word of the living model used for personal marks and similar fixed characteristics for owners of commercial farms ("rooms") located in Bergen. many living brands supplied by ownership changes. centurion Eske Bille and aldermen in Bergen ordained in 1537 goldsmiths stamp "each with sit Bodemærke" as well could mean both living brand and personal mark. Some use the term gjenstandsbumerke brand that is used in parallel with personal marks, but containing drawings of objects and not just lines. these image badges can be naturalistic or slightly stylized drawings of implements for agriculture or crafts, horseshoes, bells, clothing, boots and shoes, contrary arms or other stuff. While these shapes are stylized down to simple strokes, I do not think we achieve anything denote them as personal marks, although they can be seen to be used in the same way as the characteristics and the seal. Personal marks in Norway Page 5 3 Personal marks used as characteristic When we say that personal marks used that feature, it is because a personal mark shows that a particular person or institution acting and user mark.

The two upper sub-zones of the Lower Didymograptus Beds (3 b) appear in limestone-trilobite facies at Heramb, Ringsaker, Nor­ way. The layers at Heramb correspond to the Planilim:bata Limestone, or part of it, and the beds are correlated with corresponding deposits elsewhere in Scandinavia. The 3 b sediments are deposited in a more or less closed basin on the Scandinavian Foreland. In this basin the different facies of the 3 b sediments have a dtstinct distl'libution. The trilobites from the upper sub­ zones of 3 b at Heramb are described, among them three new trilobite species: Megalaspis Tingsakerensis sp. n. Ptychopyge herambensis sp. n. mi-noT sp. n.

Leders beretning I 2018 innførte Hamar bispedømmeråd den nye visjonen «Hellige rom for alminnelige liv». Visjonen er bispedømmets konkretisering av Den norske kirkes visjon og strategi. Den nye visjonen og strategiene setter retning for arbeidet fremover i bispedømmet og holder frem hvilken kirke vi ønsker å være, ved å knytte det hellige og det alminnelige sammen. Visjonen tar opp i seg begrep fra den apostoliske trosbekjennelsen, samtidig som den setter ord på den allmenne erfaringen av at det finnes hellige rom, og det folkekirkelige ønsket om at det skal være rom for alminnelige liv. Visjonen forteller om en folkekirke som formidler livets og kjærlighetens Gud og utfordrer til handling. Som gir verdighet og håp gjennom evangeliet om Jesus Kristus, og som er tilstede der mennesker er. Ut fra en helhetlig og overordnet vurdering er det god måloppnåelse på flere områder i Hamar bispedømme i 2018.

Transoceanic trade routes compounded travel over land for commercial gain, and the distribution of wares took on global dimensions. Precious metals, spices, textiles, and, later, slaves were among the myriad commodities transported from west to east and in some cases back again. Taste followed trade—or so the story tends to be told. This lecture addresses the traffic in global goods in the Dutch world from a different perspective—piracy. “A Taste for Piracy in the Dutch Republic” will present and explore exemplary narratives of piracy and their impact and, more broadly, the contingencies of consumption and taste- making as the result of politically charged violence. Inspired by recent scholarship on ships, shipping, maritime pictures, and piracy this lecture offers a new lens onto the culture of piracy as well as the material goods obtained by piracy, and how their capture informed new patterns of consumption in the Dutch Republic.
