1	Hoburgen – mer än bara en klint : En kombinerad osteologisk- och rumslig landskapsanalys av Gotlands sydligaste udde och dess invånare / Hoburgen – more than just a cliff : A combined osteological and spatial landscape analysis of Gotland’s southernmost peninsula and its inhabitants Albihn, Ivan January 2023 (has links) Denna uppsats undersöker Storsudret, Gotlands sydligaste udde, i ett övergripande perspektiv av landskapet och dess geografiska egenskaper, samt Sundre socken för en lokal analys av fornlämningar och människorna i området. Sydvästligast ligger Hoburgen, en klint eller klippa som har satt spår i den gotländska kulturen på flera olika sätt. Baserat på studerandet av kartor, analys av ett osteologiskt material samt etymologiska kopplingar till Hoburgen målar detta arbete en nyanserad bild av platsen och människorna däri. Genom att studera dessa aspekter kommer vi närmare att förstå människornas relation till platsen genom tiderna och varför man valt att återkomma och återbruka forna tiders gravplatser. / This thesis examines Storsudret, Gotland’s southernmost peninsula, through an overview perspective of the landscape and its geographical features, as well as Sundre parish for a local analysis of ancient monuments and the people in the area. The south-westernmost point is Hoburgen, a cliff that has left an imprint in the Gotlandic culture in various ways. Through the study of maps, analysis of osteological remains, and etymological connections to Hoburgen, this thesis demonstrates a nuanced picture of the place and the people within. By studying these aspects, we come closer to understand people’s relationship to the landscape throughout the ages and why they chose to return to it and reuse ancient burial sites. / Gotland under det 3:e årtusendet f.Kr.

2	En gropkeramisk rundtur på Gotland : GIS-analyser av gropkeramiska lokaler på Gotland och osteologiska bedömningar av resursutnyttjande / A Pitted Ware round-trip on Gotland : GIS-analyses of Pitted Ware Culture sites on Gotland and osteological assessments of resource utilisation Eriksson, Albin January 2019 (has links) The aim of this master thesis is to expand on the understanding of the resource utilisation on the 19 Gotlandic Pitted Ware Culture sites: Ajvide, Alvena, Fridtorp, Grausne, Gullrum,Gumbalde, Hau, Hemmor, Hoburgen, Ire, Kinner/Tjauls, Rangvide, Barshalder, Stenstugu,Stora Förvar, Sudergårds II, Visby, Västerbjers and Västerbys. The study utilises theoretical frameworks such as Site Catchment Analysis, Site Territorial Analysis and Optimal ForagingTheory and is based on two main questions: Which animals did the diet on each site consist of? And are there any apparent connections between diet and topography/environment? To answer these questions, osteological records have been studied to get an idea of the animal food resources utilised on each site. ArcGIS has also been used to create height- and soil maps with contemporary shorelines which show how the sites were located in the middle Neolithic Gotlandic landscape. The study has shown that most sites appear to have included a variety of animals like pig/boar, cattle, sheep/goat, fish, seal, porpoise and birds in their diet. The sites with the lowest number of confirmed animals also tend to have undergone the least archaeological investigation, suggesting that further excavations on these sites might unearth more animal species. Additional discoveries show a small albeit noticeable emphasis on marine animal resources, especially porpoise, on southern sites. Sites located in areas mostly consisting of sandy, meager soils also show an increased marine resource utilisation. This might suggest that the area around these sites were somewhat barren and lacking in terrestrial prey animals. pitted ware culture neolithic site catchment analysis site territorial analysis optimal foraging theory diet resource food settlement stone age seal shoreline landscape gropkeramisk kultur gotland mellanneolitikum diet resursutnyttjande näringsfång boplats stenålder säl strandlinjer landskap Ajvide Alvena Barshalder Fridtorp Grausne Gullrum Gumbalde Hau Hemmor Hoburgen Ire Kattlunds Kinner Tjauls Rangvide Rojrhage Stenstugu Stora Karlsö Stora Förvar Sudergårds Visby Västerbjers Västerbys Archaeology Arkeologi
