Previous Archaeological Excavations along the 'Ostlänken' Railway Corridor 1965-2012: Grepen city block - "Grepen" block

The information in the abstract is translated from the archaeological report:
Due to construction work in the "Grepen" city block, Borg parish, Norrköping municipality, the Swedish National Heritage Board's Contract Archaeology Service, UV Öst, performed an archaeological assessment (phase 2) and a field evaluation in July 2003. Search trenches were dug in two parts of the block. In the northern and the most low lying parts of the area no ancient monuments were found. In the south-east part of the block a probable Iron Age settlement was discovered. In November 2003 another field evaluation was performed in the south end of the block, due to new development plans. Only a few features, damaged by ploughing, were discovered.

Purpose:

The information in the purpose is translated from the archaeological report:
The purpose of the field evaluation was to determine the type, intensity and extent of archaeological remains adjacent to previously registered remains. The aim was also to document and, if possible, date the features and artefacts, and to point out areas with no archaeological remains. The purpose of the desk-based assessment was to determine whether there were any archaeological remains within the development area. The purpose of the field evaluation of November 2003 was to determine whether the new development area contained any archaeological remains.

本数据集的摘要内容译自下述考古报告：因北雪平市（Norrköping）博格教区（Borg parish）的格雷彭（Grepen）街区开展建筑工程，瑞典国家遗产委员会（Swedish National Heritage Board）旗下合同考古服务部门UV Öst于2003年7月开展了考古评估（第二阶段）与田野勘探。项目组在该街区的两处区域开挖探沟：区域北部及地势最低处未发现古代遗迹；街区东南部则发现一处疑似铁器时代（Iron Age）的聚落遗址。2003年11月，因新开发规划出台，项目组又在该街区南端开展了新一轮田野勘探，仅发现少量因耕作受损的遗迹特征。

用途说明部分译自该考古报告：本次田野勘探的核心目标为确定已登记考古遗迹周边遗存的类型、分布强度与覆盖范围；同时旨在记录遗迹特征与出土遗物，若可行则完成年代断代，并标识无考古遗存的区域。案头评估的目的为确认开发区域内是否存在考古遗存。2003年11月开展的田野勘探则旨在确认新开发区域内是否存在考古遗存。
