GIS-material for the archaeological project: St. Olai cemetery - District cooling through central Norrköping

The information in the abstract is translated from the archaeological report:
During winter 2004 and spring 2005 the Swedish National Heritage Board's Contract Archaeology Division, UV Öst, performed a field evaluation in central Norrköping, due to trenching works for district cooling. The trenching affected the medieval and early modern city layers, RAÄ 96. Both cultural layers from the 17th and 18th century and graves from the Middle Ages and the early modern period, belonging to Saint Olai church, were found. Waste and demolition layers as well as ground preparation layers were found on Skolgatan street. Part of the street has probably been located only a block away from Saint Olai church during the late Middle Ages/early modern period. The layers date to the 17th century, both from before and after the street regulation that took place during the second part of the century. No traces of older street stretches or of the known city fires were found. South-east of the church, graves from the medieval and early modern cemetery were discovered. A ditch west of the graves might represent the cemetery's limit. On Kristinagatan street the land has first been used for farming during the 17th century, and later a building has stood here. Fragmented agricultural layers from the late 18th century were found on a short stretch of Knäppingsborgsgatan street. On the rest of the street, as well as on Östra Promenaden street, any possible archaeological remains had been removed during earlier earthworks.

Purpose:

The information in the purpose is translated from the archaeological report:
The purpose of the preliminary investigation was to document and interpret possible archaeological remains, and to put the results into a relevant culture-historical context.

本摘要所涉信息译自下述考古报告：
2004年冬季至2005年春季，瑞典国家文物局（Swedish National Heritage Board）合同考古部UV Öst因区域供冷工程配套的沟槽开挖作业，在北雪平（Norrköping）市中心开展考古野外勘探。此次沟槽开挖作业波及RAÄ 96号登记的中世纪至近代早期城市地层。
本次调查发现了属于圣奥拉夫教堂（Saint Olai church）的17至18世纪文化层，以及中世纪至近代早期墓葬遗存。在斯科尔加坦街（Skolgatan street）发现了废弃物堆积层、拆除堆积层与场地平整层。该街道的部分路段在中世纪晚期至近代早期，或仅距圣奥拉夫教堂一个街区之遥。上述堆积层年代可追溯至17世纪，涵盖该世纪后半叶街道规整工程前后两个阶段。未发现更早的街道遗存痕迹，也未找到已记载的城市火灾相关遗迹。
在教堂东南侧，发现了属于中世纪至近代早期墓地的墓葬遗存。墓葬西侧的一条壕沟，或为该墓地的边界标识。在克里斯蒂纳加坦街（Kristinagatan street），该地块在17世纪最初被用作农田，后续在此处建起建筑。在克奈平斯堡加坦街（Knäppingsborgsgatan street）的一小段路段上，发现了18世纪晚期零散的农业堆积层。该街道其余路段以及厄斯特拉普罗梅纳登街（Östra Promenaden street）的所有潜在考古遗存，均在早期土方作业中被清除殆尽。
