16. Model Dialogues: 3D models as active resources – an experiment in data enrichment of 3D modelled lithic artefacts
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/ArkeologiSammanfattning : This thesis seeks to explore the potential for 3D archaeological datasets to become the ‘living resources’ advocated by Morgan and Wright (2018). This process is examined through lenses of object agency, object biography, Chaîne opératoire, formation processes and posthumanist theory with an aim to assess the capacity of digital approaches for enabling the self-reflexive ‘slow archaeology’ idealised by Caraher (2016).

17. A Minimum Analytical Nodule Analysis (MANA) Based Study : Mobility and sedentism during the Middle and Late Mesolithic in Sweden
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för arkeologi och antik historiaSammanfattning : Lithic artifacts are used in the understanding of human history. In order to do so, analyses and categorizations are made of the artifacts with the use of several methods and terminology. In this thesis, the minimum analytical nodule analysis (MANA) is used as method to analyze assemblages of lithic artifacts from 16 archaeological sites in Sweden. LÄS MER
18. Land cover changes in Southern Sweden from the mid-Holocene to present day: insights for ecosystem service assessments
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : Climate change and human impact play a huge role in the sustainability and development of ecosystems and the services they offer to societies over temporal and spatial scales. Fossil pollen-based estimates provide unique information on past land cover change, but to date there are not many methods able to create spatially continuous maps and have a fine scale of land cover changes inferred from pollen information.

19. De första Nösundsborna : en studie av hur västra Orust befolkades
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för arkeologi och antik historiaSammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis is to determine whether western Orust was continuously inhabited during the Stone Age and the Bronze Age. Using reports from the archaeological excavations carried out in Nösund in western Orust as a basis, I discuss what conclusions can be drawn, relating, when possible, the findings to what we, thanks to analyzes of fossil DNA made in recent years, now know about ancient peoples’ descent.

20. Relationen mellan människa och miljö : 5000 år av mänskliga handlingar och aktiviteter vid Lina myr, Gotland
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/ArkeologiSammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis is to analyse and discuss landscape use during the Mesolithic – Pre-Roman Iron Age, with a focus on the Bronze Age and adjacent periods around Lina mire on Gotland. The timespan consists of several periods of which very little is known or in which there are large research gaps. LÄS MER
