1	Sy ända in i graven : Jämförelse mellan tre vikingatida gravfälts textilrelaterade fynd / Sew into the grave : A comparison between three Viking era grave fields textile related finds Johnsson, Elin January 2020 (has links) This essay will treat the Gotlandic textile production during the Viking period (790 AD–1150 AD) by studying the three grave fields, Barshalder in Grötlingbo parish, Broe in Halla parish and Ire in Hellvi parish. The focus of the study are the textile related objects, spindle whorls, weaving tablets, needles and needle cases found at the grave fields. The study will mainly examine the spindle whorls since differences in the weight and diameter can tell us about what type of yarn or thread that was produced and in extent the textiles that were produced. The results will be catalogued, and a correspondence analysis will be done in hope it will show patterns in the material. The study will also look at if there are differences between the three grave fields and in extent on the island. textile production Viking age spindle whorls weaving tablets correspondence analysis textilproduktion vikingatid sländtrissor vävbrickor korrespondens analys Gotland Barshalder Broe Ire Archaeology Arkeologi
