Dissertation Improvement Grant Gasir Hinterlands Project

本论文改进资助，研究员雷蒙娜·哈里森/PI托马斯·麦戈文，建议通过动物考古调查，将数据连接到一个更大的环境考古项目，即Gasir腹地项目，来检查冰岛中世纪期间的当地生产和进口贸易项目。更大的Gasir项目是一个高度综合的、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。Ramona Harrison将负责四个中世纪冰岛遗址的考古动物的挖掘和分析，以深入了解当地社会群体的恢复策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.
