GIS-material for the archaeological project: Prehistoric settlement remains along a power line in south-east Åtvidaberg

The current survey found, among other things, two hearths and a possible agricultural layer damaged by ploughing. UV Öst suggests no further archaeological measures since the trenching for the power lines could be made without affecting the archaeological remains. Purpose: The information in the purpose is translated from the archaeological report: The purpose of the preliminary investigation and the stage 2 survey, was to determine whether any archaeological remains were going to be affected by the planned trenching and, if possible, to try to avoid them.

The results were going to form the basis for possible future decisions by the County Administrative Board concerning the matter. The data is available in two formats: a ZIP file containing GIS shapefiles connected to an Access datafile containing information pertaining to excavation area, finds, object types along with other metadata regarding the archaeological investigation. The second ZIP file consists of corresponding .gml and .xlsx files.
