1	Smörkullen- the forgotten cemetery : Dietary studies of a Roman Iron Age cemetery in Västra Tollstad parish, Östergötland Lindberg, Tove January 2009 (has links) <p>This thesis deals with individuals buried at Smörkullen, Västra Tollstad parish, Östergötland, Sweden. The aim is to reconstruct the diet of the individuals through stable isotope analyses and then try to identify if social hierarchy correlates with the diet. To do this, 35 individuals were divided into different groups (males, females, high status graves, low status graves, young adults, adults, seniors and trepanned individuals) and then subjected to stable isotope analyses of carbon, nitrogen and sulphur. The results show that all individuals lived mainly on freshwater fish with a few exceptions that had a more mixed diet of terrestrial protein and freshwater fish. The sulphur analyses showed that one female (possibly two) has moved to the area sometime after the age of seven. Because of the homogenous diet of freshwater fish no social hierarchy based on diet could be established.</p> Roman Iron Age Östergötland Västra Tollstad Alvastra Smörkullen diet Stable isotopes Romersk järnålder Östergötland Västra Tollstad Alvastra Smörkullen diet stabila isotoper Archaeology subjects Arkeologiämnen

3	Eskilstunakistornas bruk och återbruk : Tidigkristna gravmonument i Östergötland under medeltiden Körlinge, Max January 2012 (has links) This paper studies the fragmentation and reuse of early christian monuments ("eskilstunakistor") in churches in Östergötland during the medieval period. This is found to have been done in two stages. The first stage shows a collectivization of society. Within religion the change from ancestoral cult towards the saints' cult is important as the fragments are reused like relics. During the second stage the collectivization has been fulfilled, and the reuse is instead part of the christian churches' strategy for incorporating old powerful symbols from the landscape into their own church building. eskilstunakista eskilstunakistor tidigkristna gravmonument medeltid stenmonument kista östergötland återbruk kyrkor stenkyrkor runstenar 1100-tal 1000-tal 1200-tal sverkersgården alvastra östra skrukeby västra tollstad hov odal helgonkult fragmentering visibilitet kollektivisering kult marxism kristendomen religion runornamentik ulfhild stenkilska ätten sverkersätten thegn
