During the planning stages of new business start-ups in Leksand, it was decided that an archaeological survey of the area in question was to be performed in 2013. The reason for this was that in the 1980s findings of Stone Age character had been found in the clay field that once was there. In the 2013 survey, it was found that the area is a stone age settlement, dating back close to 9, 600 BP ( early mesolithic age). Stone age settlements are usually very close to rivers or lakes. For this reason, there arenormally no archaeological surveys of areas not adjacent to water. But this settlement was found on a clay field, 100 meters from the nearest water, Limsjön.The reason for this is that the water level at the time of the settlement's construction was higher in the ground than today. This is b ecause of the uplift of land that occurs in Sweden. The settlement, which was built close to 10,000 years ago was built when the water level was about 10 meters above todays water level at Limsjön. The purpose of this work is to produce maps showing where the whole Siljan shore line was at the time when the first people settled there. This will be done using information for the water surface position close to the settlement from 10,000 years ago to. The old shore line is several 10’s of kilometers long. To get more specific areas the maps also show suitable settlement areas based on the soil types that people have settled on during that time. These maps will then be used as a supportfor choosing areas where archaeological surveys might be of interest. / Under planeringen av nya företagsetableringar i Leksand valde man att 2013 utföra en arkeologisk undersökning av det aktuella området. Anledningen var att man på 1980-talet funnit fynd av stenålderskaraktär i den leråker som låg där då. I undersökningen framkom det att området är en stenåldersboplats, daterad till som äldst omkring 9 600 BP ( tidigmesolitisk tid). Stenåldersboplatser finns i regel i mycket nära anknytning till vattendrag och sjöar. Av denna anledning görs det normalt sett inga arkeologiska undersökningar av denna typ om området inte ligger intill vatten. Men denna boplats hittades alltså på en leråker, 100 meter från det närmsta vattnet, Limsjön. Anledningen till detta är att vattennivån vid tiden för boplatsens uppförande låg högre upp i terrängen än vad den gör idag. På grund av landhöjningen har vattenytans nivå sjunkit i terrängen. Boplatsen som uppfördes för nära 10 000 år sedan uppfördes när vattenytan låg cirka 10 meter högre upp i terrängen vid Limsjön. Syftet med detta arbete är att utifrån information för vattenytans läge vid boplatsen för 10 000 år sedan ta fram kartor som visar var hela Siljans strand låg i terrängen för tiden då de första människorna bosatte sig där. Den forna strandkanten är flera mil lång. För att få fram mer specifika områden ska kartorna även visa områden som är lämpliga boplatsområden, utifrån vilka jordarter som människorna har bosatt sig på under den tiden. Dessa kartor ska sedan kunna användas som underlag för var arkeologiska undersökningar skulle kunna vara intressanta att genomföra.

Nesse sentido, foi realizado um estudo do Sítio Arqueológico Piracanjuba, localizado no Município de Piraju, SP, na região do Médio Rio Paranapanema, pelo viés teórico da Arqueologia da Paisagem. Trata-se de um sítio litocerâmico Guarani, cuja área é estudada visando compreender o padrão de assentamento para, depois, submetê-lo ao exame comparativo com os demais sítios arqueológicos Guarani do Médio Paranapanema. O ambiente foi analisado, segundo os pressupostos geossistêmicos horizontais (geofácies e geótopo) e verticais (geohorizontes), a fim de abordar a representação e espacialização cartográfica do sítio em sua relação com as características do complexo físico-geográfico da área. Para a sistematização dos dados, foram utilizados programas de Sistema de Informação Geográfica (SIG), como o QGIS, bem como programa de desenho assistido, como o AutoCad e CorelDRAW, além da análise de fotografias panorâmicas, fotografias aéreas (estereoscopia analógical) e imagens de satélite. Os resultados desta dissertação contribuem para o trabalho de análise da paisagem em pesquisas arqueológicas, sobretudo no que diz respeito ao Sistema de Ocupação Regional Guarani no Vale do Rio Paranapanema, além da discussão sobre Arqueologia da Paisagem pelo viés geossistêmico. / Research concerning the relationship between society and the environment in past times shows the relevance of interdisciplinary studies between Geography and Archeology. In this sense, a study of the Piracanjuba Archaeological Site, located in the Municipality of Piraju, SP, in the region of the Middle Paranapanema River, was carried out by the theoretical bias of Landscape Archeology. It is a Guarani litho-ceramic site. The area of the site is studied in order to understand the pattern of settlement and then submit it to the comparative examination with the other Guarani archaeological sites of the Middle Paranapanema. The environment was analyzed according to geosciences (geo-geology and geo-geology) and vertical (geohorizon) assumptions in order to approach the representation and mapping of the site in its relation with the characteristics of the physical-geographic complex of the area. For the systematization of the data, Geographic Information System (GIS) programs such as QGIS were used, as well as an assisted design program such as AutoCad and CorelDRAW, as well as the analysis of panoramic photographs, aerial photographs (digital stereoscopy) and satellite images. The results of this dissertation contribute to the work of analyzing the landscape in archaeological research, especially with regard to the Guarani Regional Occupation System in the Paranapanema River Valley, besides the discussion on Landscape Archeology by the geosystemic bias. / Las investigaciones referentes a la relación de la sociedad con el ambiente en tiempos pretéritos muestran la relevancia de estudios interdisciplinarios entre la Geografía y la Arqueología.

Esta pesquisa apresenta alguns resultados do trabalho realizado com enfoque na arqueologia da paisagem em sítios arqueológicos localizados na Bacia Hidrográfica do Rio Turvo-Grande. Os procedimentos de campo foram iniciados no ano de 2011 e finalizados no ano de 2014, permitindo-nos avaliar o tipo e a intensidade de materiais arqueológicos, sua distribuição na paisagem, os aspectos geoambientais relevantes para a ocupação pretérita e os processos de formação atuantes nesses registros. Os dados colhidos em campo foram compilados em linguagem cartográfica, o que permitiu gerar informações espaciais dos sítios arqueológicos, bem como compreender sua possível relação com os geoindicadores locais. Os materiais arqueológicos recolhidos foram analisados em laboratório, levantando questões importantes sobre a sua produção, o seu uso e a sua espacialidade intrassítio. Os sítios arqueológicos trabalhados no âmbito dessa pesquisa foram correlacionados ao contexto arqueológico regional. A análise multiescalar e multidimensional desse contexto permitiu identificar alguns padrões socioespaciais que auxiliaram na compreensão do processo de habitar e transformar às paisagens do norte do estado de São Paulo. / This research presents some results of the work fulfilled with focus on the landscape archaeology in archeological sites located in the Turvo-Grande River Basin. Field procedures were initiated in 2011 and finalized in 2014, allowing us to evaluate the type and intensity of archaeological materials, their distribution in the landscape, the geoenvironmental aspects relevant to the past occupation and the formation processes in these records. The data collected in the field were compiled in cartographic language, which allowed to engender spatial information of the archaeological sites, furthermore to understand its possible relation with the local geoindicators. The collected archaeological materials were analyzed in the laboratory, raising important questions about its production, its use and its intrasite spatial. The archaeological sites worked within this research were correlated to the regional archaeological context. The multiscale and multidimensional analysis of this context allowed the identification of some socio-spatial patterns that helped to understand the process of dwelling and transforming the landscapes of the north of the state of São Paulo.

Au début de notre ère, les hautes terres du sud du Brésil furent occupées par des peuples précoloniaux qui édifièrent de grandes constructions en terre sur le sol - tels que monticules funéraires, dépôts de terre, murs, remblais, terrassements - et sous le sol - les structures souterraines et semi-souterraines. Dans le but d'obtenir davantage de données et de mieux comprendre le mode de vie de ces populations, ce travail s'est basé sur l'approche de l'archéologie du paysage lors des fouilles entreprises dans l'ensemble des structures édifiées du site RS-AN-03 et de la prospection archéologique dans une zone pilote de 1 500 km² dans la région de Bom Jesus, située dans l'État le plus méridional du Brésil. Envisageant le paysage comme un participant actif dans les actions sociales humaines, cette approche a donné à l'archéologie des hautes terres brésiliennes un nouveau support interprétatif. Elle a également permis d'élaborer un modèle de comportement territorial à partir des analyses des niveaux intrasite, intersite et régional, ainsi qu'un nouveau discours narratif sur l'occupation humaine précoloniale. Établi à partir du constat d'expansion de la forêt d'araucarias sur un paysage de champs, concomitante de l'expansion et de la fixation des groupes humains vers 1 500 avant J.C. environ, ce discours met en évidence une dynamique socio-environnementale sur le Planalto das Araucárias, un aspect anthropique du paysage. La concentration élevée des ressources disponibles et assurées annuellement a favorisé la concentration de personnes, qui construisirent des villages et de grands hameaux à caractère permanent et constituèrent des sociétés complexes, hiérarchisées, avec des territoires délimités et protégés. / The highlands in southern Brazil were settled around the beginning of our era by precolonial peoples who built large earth buildings on the ground in the form of small burial hills, earth deposits, walls, landfills, terraces, in addition to building underground and semiunderground structures. In order to get more information and better understand the way of life of these populations, the landscape archeology approach was used to make diggings in the set of buildings on site RS-AN-03 and on the archeological survey conducted at a pilot area of 1,500 Km² located in Bom Jesus in the southernmost Brazilian state. This approach, which views the landscape as an active player in human social actions, provided a new interpretative contribution to the archeology of Brazilian highlands, enabling the design of a territory behavior model based on the analyses performed within sites, across sites and at the regional level and a new narrative discourse on pre-colonial human settlements. This discourse, made from the realization of the expansion of araucaria forecast on a grassland landscape that took place together with the expansion and settlement of human groups around 1,500 BC shows evidence of a social-environmental dynamics at the araucaria plateau, a landscape anthropogenization. The high concentration of resources available and ensured all year round enabled the concentration of people who built permanent towns and larges villages and constituted complex hierarchized societies that kept their territories delimited and protected.
