   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Osteoarchaeological patterns; Taphonomic analysis; Osseous craft; Mesolithic; Spatial studies; arkeologi; Archaeology;

   Sammanfattning : Osteoarchaeological materials are influenced by many consecutive factors, from human hunting strategies, consumption patterns and waste disposal to mechanical and chemical changes in bone structure and shape. Here Mesolithic osteoarchaeological patterns have been examined in relation to the production of bone and antler artefacts. LÄS MER

4. 3. Fishing for ways to thrive : Integrating zooarchaeology to understand subsistence strategies and their implications among Early and Middle Mesolithic southern Scandinavian foragers

   Författare :Adam Boethius; Historisk osteologi; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Early Holocene; Mesolithic; Palaeodiet; Zooarchaeology; Scandinavia; Subsistence; Fish; Forager;

   Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate and deduce the varied lifeways of Early Holocene foragers in southern Scandinavia.

7. 5. Kulturkontakter i Sydskandinavien under mesolitikum : Hantverkstraditioner, råmaterialval och mobilitet för 9000 år sedan, med utgångspunkt från Norje Sunnansund i Blekinge

   Författare :Mathilda Kjällquist; Joakim Wehlin; Kjel Knutsson; Sara Gummesson; Uppsala universitet; []

   Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis is to investigate different scales of mobility and social networks in Southern Scandinavia around 7000 BC. An essential basis for this work is the hypothesis that the conical core pressure blade technology, a specific method for producing lithic blades, reached Scandinavia from the east. LÄS MER
