Dissertation Improvement Grant Gasir Hinterlands Project

这篇论文改进格兰特，调查员拉蒙娜·哈里森/派·托马斯·麦戈文，建议通过动物考古调查来检查冰岛中世纪时期的当地生产和进口贸易物品，这些调查将把数据与更大的环境考古项目--加西尔腹地项目--联系起来。规模更大的Gasir项目是一个高度整合、跨学科的环境考古项目，旨在深入了解中世纪冰岛的社会、文化、物质和环境变化。雷蒙娜·哈里森将负责挖掘和分析来自四个中世纪冰岛遗址的考古动物，以深入了解当地社会群体的复原力战略及其对气候扰动的适应。

This Dissertation Improvement Grant, investigator Ramona Harrison/PI Thomas McGovern, proposes to examine local production and imported trade items during the medieval period in Iceland through zooarchaeological investigations that will connect data to a larger environmental archaeology project, the Gasir Hinterlands Project. The larger Gasir project is a highly integrated, interdisciplinary environmental archaeology project to gain insights into social, cultural, material and environmental change in medieval Iceland. Ramona Harrison will be responsible for the excavation and analysis of archaeofauna from four medieval Icelandic sites in order to gain insight into the resilience stategies of local social groups and their adaptations to climate perturbations.
