The Ertebølle Settlement Strande LA 163, Kr. Rendsburg-Eckernförde and the Littorina-Transgression - submarine surveys and investigations

2012年，在为期两周的水下测试挖掘期间，对基尔湾的Strande LA 163进行了调查，发现在前海岸线上6米水深处的废物处理区的原地发现层保存完好。这场战役提供了一个更古老的埃尔特布勒海岸定居点的证据，该定居点被Littorina海侵淹没。尽管视察时间很短，但该地点的库存量令人印象深刻，有机人工制品的保存条件良好。初步研究结果为该地区的工匠劳动和食品加工提供了证据。此外，树木年代学数据的树干，除了罕见的可能性，以恢复保存完好的人类遗骸没有污染，适合aDNA分析，使斯特兰德一个非凡的网站与未来的研究潜力很大。树木年代学、类型学和物理测量表明，它的年龄为公元前5390-4750年。重要的问题，如地貌的发展和沉积过程的网站迄今尚未得到解决。此外，我们在试验沟中确定的废物处理区的面积以及相应沉降的位置和大小仍有待调查。潜水员在附近发现的单一化石、更多的树干和泥炭露头，以及大量冲上岸的人工制品，为发掘现场周围的更多考古结构提供了证据。研究目的是通过取芯调查发现层的尺寸和保存情况，并系统地调查周围地区的中石器时代晚期遗址。通过这种方式，我们计划解决考古潜力晚期中石器时代的基尔湾，这被认为是优秀的，更详细。因此，必须证明Strande LA 163的可用性及其来源，作为探索该地区狩猎采集社会生活方式的研究基础，这是中石器时代严重不足的一章。鉴于应用项目证明了研究领域的假定特殊科学潜力，打算继续和加强研究。

The site Strande LA 163 in Kiel Bay was investigated during a two-week underwater test excavation in 2012 and revealed well preserved in situ find layers of a waste disposal area on the former coastline in six meters water depth. The campaign gave evidence for an older Ertebølle coastline settlement which was submerged by the Littorina Transgression. Despite the short time of inspection the site revealed an impressive inventory and good preservation conditions for organic artefacts. Preliminary results give evidence for craftsmen working and the food processing in this area. Moreover, dendrochronological datable tree trunks in addition to the rare possibility to recover well preserved human remains without contamination, suitable for aDNA analyses, make Strande an extraordinary site with large potential for future research. Dating by dendrochronology, typology and physical measurements indicates an age of 5390-4750 BC. Important questions, such as the geomorphological development and sedimentation processes on the site have so far not been addressed. Furthermore, the dimension of the waste disposal area, which we identified in the test trenches, and the location and size of the corresponding settlement remain to be investigated. Single finds from nearby reported by divers, the observation of more tree trunks and peat outcrops, as well as numerous ashore washed artefacts give evidence for more archaeological structures in the surroundings of the excavation site.The research objective is to investigate the dimensions and preservation of findlayers via corings and to systematically survey the surrounding area for further late Mesolithic sites. By this means we plan to resolve the archaeological potential for the late Mesolithic of Kiel Bay, which is considered to be excellent, in more detail. Thereby proof has to be given for the usability of Strande LA 163 and its sourroundings as research basis for exploring the lifestyle of hunter-gatherer societies in this region, a severely understudied chapter in the mesolithic period. Given that the applied project proofs the postulated exceptional scientific potential of the research area, a continuation and intensification of the research is intended.
