Description
Summary:In the summer of 2018 the research project “Stone Age Demographics” conducted surveys on the island of Seiland, on the Slettnes promontory and in Vargsundet in western Finnmark on two separate occasion. Previously known sites were re-visited for the purpose of new georeferenced documentation and description of site topography, and new sites were searched for. This report presents the areas and sites that were surveyed and provides an overview of the structures at each site. Forskningsprosjektet «Stone Age Demographics» gjennomførte sommeren 2018 to befarings- og dokumentasjonsreiser til Seiland, Slettnes og Vargsundet i Vestfinnmark. Dels ble en rekke tidligere kjente lokaliteter besøkt med henblikk på ny georeferert dokumentasjon og lokalitetsbeskrivelse, dels ble det sett etter nye boplasser. Rapporten gjennomgår de besøkte områder og lokaliteter og gir en oversikt over kulturminnene på hver lokalitet.
