MYTHING LINKS by Kathleen Jenks, Ph.D. GEOGRAPHICAL REGIONS: EASTERN EUROPE THE BALTIC STATES: LITHUANIA Lithuania http://neris.mii.lt/heritage/cultura.html [Link transferred from the original '98-'99 Baltic page]: This is "Cultural Heritage," which looks at a culture dating back to 10,000 BCE. This section includes excellent (albeit brief) essays and overviews on archaeology, Yule traditions, history, language, folklore, architecture, folk art, ancient musical instruments (including mini-recordings, if your browser can handle these), and much more. One essay, "Lithuanian Folk Art," looks at wood carving in some depth (it also includes several nice illustrations); one interesting fact here is that men carved beautifully decorated wooden spinning and weaving implements and gave them as gifts to women, a wonderful example of creative partnerships this arouses questions about ancient Greece, and other ancient cultures in which spinning and weaving were a purely feminine realm: as far as I know, no one ever asks who carved the looms and spinning wheels might these contributions also have been male gifts? is there any evidence, in literature or elsewhere, to support this possibility?); under "Textiles" in this same essay is the intriguing fact that white linen was believed to possess magical power.

7. Maritime Archaeology In Northwest Russia The main problems for maritime archaeology in Russia are The imperfect includingintensive economical and cultural processes in the baltic region since viking http://www.abc.se/~m10354/mar/rus-arch.htm

Maritime Archaeology in northwest Russia by Petr Sorokin The first underwater archaeological works in Russia started in the beginning of our century. In this time an ancient harbour was investigated at Feodosia, at the Black Sea, as well as a post-medieval boat in the northern part of Chudskoe Lake. But those were only the first experiences from land archaeologists in a water environment. The beginning of maritime archaeology as a special part of archaeological science, is connected with works by Orbelly and Blavatsky in the 1930s - 50s. The first underwater archaeological activities were concentrated on investigations of ancient monuments in the Black Sea. During the following time, several maritime archaeological groups existed in different parts of Russia, including St Petersburg. Presently, underwater search in St Petersburg is realised by different organisations, associations and clubs. This is coordinated by the Institute of the History of Material Culture and the Institute of Archaeology . Both institutes belong to the Russian Academy of Science, and give special permission for underwater investigations and keep scientific supervision of these works.

The Rostock Maritime Museum – Schiffahrtsmuseum Rostock The museum was founded in 1968 as a museum of shipping history. The museum is divided in two branches. The main branch, exhibiting the history of shipping, is housed in a 19th century building in the centre of Rostock. The second branch is situated in an old merchant ship, built in the 1950s in Rostock. There, the history of shipbuilding through the centuries is exhibited. The museum is especially proud of its large collection of "captain's pictures", detailed portraits of ships, painted for their captains in various techniques, including water-colours, oil, and even executed in silk embroidery. The museum's work is not only concentrated on organising exhibitions, but also scientific research and the exchange of these results. Schiffahrtsmuseum Rostock, Im Steintor, August-Bebel-Straße 1, D-18055 Rostock, Germany, tel 49-381-4922698, fax 49-381-27254, Opening hours: Tuesday - Sunday, 10:00-18:00 The Department of Ship archaeology (Schiffsarchäologie) at the museum In 1994, the Department of Ship archaeology was founded at the Schiffahrtsmuseum in Rostock. The main task is the prospection of ship wrecks along the coast of Mecklenburg- Westpommerania. This department provided for the first time an institute which concerned itself with maritime archaeology, especially the examining of boats and ships in the German Baltic coastal region. Emphasis is placed on the examining of ship building techniques and the history of shipping in the 16th century, based on archaeological sources. It is at this level that the international exchange of information takes place because, for example, many finds have been made in Sweden. The first results were collected from a stranded

Environmental and cultural history of the Baltic region Environmental modelling of the sensitive and specific coastal areas of the Baltic Sea through time Department of Quaternary Research, Stockholm University, SE-106 91 STOCKHOLM The environmental and cultural history of the Baltic basin has been a dynamic, sometimes violent, interaction between nature, environment, people and culture. In the Baltic Sea region, the deglaciation of the last ice sheet started neotectonic processes, as land uplift and subsidence, resulting in regressive, and sometimes transgressive phases of shore displacement. During the last 12,000 years the Baltic Sea has been fresh, brackish and saline, and there has been extraterrestrial impact caused by meteorite. The changing shoreline and configuration of the emerging islands is specific for the northern part of the Baltic Sea, where the archipelagos with thousands of rocky islands dominate. The southern part of the Baltic is characterised by a few large islands of calcareous bedrock. Common for the coastal areas is the threatening pollution and eutrophication, caused by dense population, industry and tourism. The interdisciplinary collaboration within the PACT Palaeoecological Network was concentrated on the Mediterranean and Nordic countries in the 1980's. During the 'glasnost' and continuing with the decomposition of the Soviet Union, there started an intense information, training and research programme in the Baltic States and other East European countries from the beginning of 1990's.

Dendrochronology Laboratory Department of Archaeology University of Sheffield Sheffield Dendrochronology Laboratory Current Research The Softwood Project Baltic Oak Timbers Devon Buildings and Woodlands London Woodland Changes The Softwood Project Dendrochronology in Britain and Ireland is founded on the analysis of oak, ( Quercus sp), but there have been recent notable successes with other species, such as beech, ( Fagus silvatica L.), and native sub-fossil pines, ( Pinus sylvestris L.). The conifers frequently found in medieval and post-medieval context remain virtually ignored. This is essentially due to the fact that conifers have been widely imported throughout the last millennia, thus increasing the difficulties associated with their analysis. However, the progressively widespread use of dendrochronology and the increasing co-operation between recognised laboratories throughout Europe and the USA has proved invaluable in identifying imported oak timbers in a variety of historical contexts and has clearly demonstrated the suitability of conifers for dendrochronological analysis. It is therefore, necessary to build up a database of conifer chronologies and extend the scope of British dendrochronology to enable precise dating evidence to be obtained from a wider range of timber species and hence provide a more comprehensive dating system for timber structures and artefacts.
