Description

The data contains an Excel table of 112 shipwrecks in Southern Norway and Western Sweden. The data is systematised using 64 different variables and contains additional information on dating and provenance. The table is organised as a binary indicator matrix. It is applied in a statistical analysis (Falck, T. 2024. The Becoming of Boats. Craft Practices in Southern Norwegian Boatbuilding. 1050 – 1700 CE. PhD Thesis. Stockholm University). To explain the content of the variables, an extract from the thesis is attached (Chapter 3). Here, the use of technical variables in the table is reviewed, defined and discussed.
