Large wooden piles that stick out of the sea and form a barrier in the strait between the islands of Blekinge. This is what it once looked like at the entrance to several places along the Blekinge coast. Today, remains of the piles remain on the seabed and by examining them we have been able to create a picture of how and what they were used for.
What has been found are sites that testify to life during the Iron Age, but we have also discovered the world's oldest fishing facility located in one of the small bays of the Listerby archipelago. The research and investigations of the piles on the seabed have, in a common context, given us a lot of answers and new knowledge about the ancient archipelago environment.
Tonight, marine archaeologist Mikael Björk talks about the project, the latest research results and plans for new investigations.
