The declared aim of this research-excavation was to relocate the exact position of an earlier, unfinished excavation trench from the eve of World War II, an enhancement of a larger section immediately around it for a modern, state-of-the-art investigation of the burial ground including aDNA-extraction, and finally a monitoring of the present-day preservation conditions for human remains.<\/p>\n<p>The excavations started off with a 12.5 x 12 m large trench roughly centring on the 1939-trench. Observation conditions were hindered due to a very heavy bioturbation caused by resident moles and root voles. Most of the features were about ENE-WSW orientated graves with nailed coffins and without grave goods. The overwhelming majority, however, did not feature preserved human bones. It was attempted to compensate this circumstance methodologically by a consequent soil sampling at the bottom of the grave-pits in hope to catch some putrid juice suitable for aDNA-analysis. Also from three of the main profiles soil samples were taken for further soil-chemical analysis in order to follow up the question for the prevailing erratic preservation conditions. A minor supplementary trench of 3 x 5 metres was opened next to the main excavation area from 1900-1912. Here, the preservation conditions proved to be far better.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1910 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/zbsa.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/image_preview-2-240x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"240\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zbsa.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/image_preview-2-240x300.jpeg 240w, https:\/\/zbsa.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/image_preview-2-10x12.jpeg 10w, https:\/\/zbsa.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/image_preview-2.jpeg 320w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>All-in-all, 69 features were recorded during the excavations.

Busdorf, Kreis Schleswig-Flensburg; LA No. 31-3; excavation ALSH 2017-32) was subject to an archaeological investigation. The declared aim of this research-excavation was to relocate the exact position of an earlier, unfinished excavation trench from the eve of World War II, an enhancement of a larger section immediately around it for a modern, state-of-the-art investigation of the burial ground including aDNA-extraction, and finally a monitoring of the present-day preservation conditions for human remains. The excavations started off with a 12.5 x 12 m large trench roughly centring on the 1939-trench. Observation conditions were hindered due to a very heavy bioturbation caused by resident moles and root voles. Most of the features were about ENE-WSW orientated graves with nailed coffins and without grave goods. The overwhelming majority, however, did not feature preserved human bones. It was attempted to compensate this circumstance methodologically by a consequent soil sampling at the bottom of the grave-pits in hope to catch some putrid juice suitable for aDNA-analysis. Also from three of the main profiles soil samples were taken for further soil-chemical analysis in order to follow up the question for the prevailing erratic preservation conditions. A minor supplementary trench of 3 x 5 metres was opened next to the main excavation area from 1900-1912. Here, the preservation conditions proved to be far better. All-in-all, 69 features were recorded during the excavations. The encountered artefact-spectrum was vast and the finds reach as many as 12,000 entities. For the moment post-excavation work as e.g. digitalisation, GIS, aDNA- and material analysis are ongoing. &nbsp; Themenbereiche Mensch und Gesellschaft \u00a0\u00a0 Forschungsschwerpunkte Research Cluster Hedeby, Slesvig and beyond Mitarbeiter Docent Dr. Sven Kalmring &nbsp; &nbsp; In Kooperation mit Museum f\u00fcr Arch\u00e4ologie Stiftung Schleswig-Holsteinische LandesmuseenSchloss Gottorf Arch\u00e4ologisches Landesamt Schleswig-Holstein<\/p>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_eb_attr":"","inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[40,48,42],"tags":[68,69],"class_list":["post-1906","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-forschungsschwerpunkte","category-research-cluster-hedeby","category-mensch-und-gesellschaft","tag-research-cluster-hedeby","tag-slesvig-and-beyond"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Ausgrabung Haithabu-Flachgr\u00e4berfeld - Zentrum f\u00fcr Baltische und Skandinavische Arch\u00e4ologie (ZBSA) \u2014 Zentrum f\u00fcr Baltische und Skandinavische Arch\u00e4ologie<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/zbsa.eu\/en\/ausgrabung-haithabu-flachgraeberfeld\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_GB\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Ausgrabung Haithabu-Flachgr\u00e4berfeld - Zentrum f\u00fcr Baltische und Skandinavische Arch\u00e4ologie (ZBSA) \u2014 Zentrum f\u00fcr Baltische und Skandinavische Arch\u00e4ologie\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"In April to October 2017 a larger section of Hedeby\u2019s Flat-Grave Burial Ground (Flachgr\u00e4berfeld; Busdorf, Kreis Schleswig-Flensburg; LA No. 31-3; excavation ALSH 2017-32) was subject to an archaeological investigation.

The declared aim of this research-excavation was to relocate the exact position of an earlier, unfinished excavation trench from the eve of World War II, an enhancement of a larger section immediately around it for a modern, state-of-the-art investigation of the burial ground including aDNA-extraction, and finally a monitoring of the present-day preservation conditions for human remains.<\/p>\n<p>The excavations started off with a 12.5 x 12 m large trench roughly centring on the 1939-trench. Observation conditions were hindered due to a very heavy bioturbation caused by resident moles and root voles. Most of the features were about ENE-WSW orientated graves with nailed coffins and without grave goods. The overwhelming majority, however, did not feature preserved human bones. It was attempted to compensate this circumstance methodologically by a consequent soil sampling at the bottom of the grave-pits in hope to catch some putrid juice suitable for aDNA-analysis. Also from three of the main profiles soil samples were taken for further soil-chemical analysis in order to follow up the question for the prevailing erratic preservation conditions. A minor supplementary trench of 3 x 5 metres was opened next to the main excavation area from 1900-1912. Here, the preservation conditions proved to be far better.<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"https:\/\/zbsa.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/image_preview-2-240x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"240\" height=\"300\"><\/p>\n<p>All-in-all, 69 features were recorded during the excavations.
