1	Stor eller liten, orörd eller sliten? : En vetenskaplig studie om båtformade stridsyxor i Västergötland / Big or small, intact or well-worn? : A scientific study about boat axes in the province of Västergötland Terbrant Säfström, Simon January 2016 (has links) This bachelor thesis is based on a material of 45 battle axes from The Swedish History Museum, both miniature axes and regular boat axes from the middle Neolithic era. The geographical demarcation is the province of Västergötland in Sweden. The aim of the study is to analyze the axes, mainly morphologically and size-wise, to try to understand and define miniature axes in comparison to the regular boat axes. Another intention is to try to reveal if there are any differences between the miniatures and the regular axes regarding importance and function of the axes. The result is presented by dint of several tables of measures and attributes of all the axes as well as numerous scatter plots and pie charts showing physical attributes and signs of use of the axes in question. The results show for instance that miniature axes more often than not are sloppily made and more well-worn compared to the regular boat axes. According to the study this might have to do with the probability of the miniature axes being made for children. Arkeologi Båtyxa Stridsyxa Skafthålsyxa Neolitikum Mellanneolitikum Stridsyxekulturen
2	Regionala Traditioner inom Skandinavisk Trattbägarkultur : Den tidigneolitiska mångkantiga stridsyxan som identitetsmarkör Falkbäck, Dante Carl January 2023 (has links) The intent of this essay is to get a clearer picture of the regional differences and traditions within the funnel-beaker culture in Scandinavia during the early neolithic period. By getting a more thorough understanding of the practical labour and social aspects of the production attributed to the polygonal battle-axe, interpretations of regional divisions and the manufacture process are presented. This is done with the use of distribution patterns, ethnographic research and cultural evolution theory. / <p>Betyg: A</p> funnel beaker funnelbeaker scandinavia neolithic early neolithic axe stone axe ethnographic ethnoarchaeology Regional Tradition Skandinavisk Trattbägarkultur tidigneolitisk mångkantig stridsyxa identitetsmarkör Archaeology Arkeologi
