Kulturhistoriska värden i plan- och byggprocesser : redovisning av regeringsuppdrag om hur kulturhistoriska värden integreras och tas tillvara
Riksantikvarieämbetet fick juni 2018 i uppdrag av regeringen att samla och redovisa kunskap om och goda exempel på hur kulturhistoriska värden kan integreras och tas tillvara i plan- och byggprocesser. Denna rapport utgör redovisningen av uppdraget och har tagits fram i syfte att ge en bred genomlysning av integrering och tillvaratagande kulturhistoriska värden
Luftkvalitet : testa material för emissioner
Bra materialval för utställning, packning och förvaring kan minska riskerna för nedbrytning av museiföremål. Genom olika tester går det att få reda på vilka material som kan emittera skadliga luftföroreningar
Inhumationsgravar under yngre bronsålder och äldsta järnålder i Uppland
This article focuses on the inhumation graves from the Late Bronze Age and the earliest part of the Iron Age that have been excavated in Uppland. The aim is to discuss the inhumation burial practice during the Late Bronze Age in this part of the Mälaren valley. It has been known for a long time that there was wide variety in the construction of graves and/or bone deposits from the Late Bronze Age in Uppland. Most of the graves are cremation graves, but archaeological excavations in Uppland and central Sweden in the 20th century and at the beginning of the 21st century found and investigated a few inhumation graves dated to the Late Bronze Age and the earliest part of the Iron Age. Even though inhumation graves in the area were known during most of the 20th century, they are often seen as something unknown, unexpected and unusual. Recent studies of burial traditions in the Mälaren valley during the Bronze Age have mainly focused on cremation graves,and especially the category of “cremation graves” which contain very few bones. In the article it is argued that the evidence of inhumation burials in Uppland needs tobe further examined in order to better understand the complex burial customs ofthe Late Bronze Age and the earliest Iron Age in central Sweden
Nya rön om Birkaflickan
Genom analys av hennes större mjölkkindtand (dp4-) har hennes härkomst och mobilitet synliggjorts. Totalt genomfördes 20 ablationer på flickans tand. Ablationerna gjordes med ett mellanrum på ca 140 μm och följer tandbildningen, där den första ablationen gjordes närmst kronan (som bildas först) och den sista ablationen närmst roten (som bildas sist), vilket motsvarar en ungefärlig ålder på en dryg månad efter födsel till att flickan var cirka nio månader gammal
Sindal : siden som bakgrund till medeltida broderier
Inger Estham, who passed away in 2016, worked for many years as Director and Head of Department at the Textile Department of the Swedish National Heritage Board and the Swedish History Museum. She left unfinished research material covering a group of medieval embroideries, previously attributed to Albrict the embroiderer. This was bequeathed to Mari-Louise Franzén, previously Senior Curator at the textile collection at the Swedish History Museum, for further research and completion. An excerpt focusing on a specific silk quality has been selected, processed and published separately in this article. In her research Inger Estham observed seven embroideries made on a background of a silk, only fragmentarily preserved today. By means of comparative studies of international textiles, she has identified this quality of silk as sendal, a lightweight and thin silk tabby. Some minor clarifications have been made to Inger Estham’s text in order for it to stand separately. The text is concluded with an appendix, written by Mari- Louise Franzén, in which a few more examples of preserved medieval textiles with sendal are presented
