This essay should be regarded as an artifact study and as a foundation for continued research. As very little has been written about younger blackware, the focal point of this study is on key problems such as dating, function and production. The material of the study is from the excavation of Kv. Apotekaren 4, carried out 1979-1980. The stratigraphy of the site was well dated with dendrochronology

The Swedish preparations for war have decreased rapidly since the end of the cold war. The internationalization of the Swedish Armed Forces, together with the phase out of the civilian defence, was a direct measure of a worldwide peace between nations. However, in recent years, the situation has changed, and the nation faces a specific threat yet again. The purpose of this study is to investigate

Forecasting foreign exchange rates and financial asset prices in general is a hard task. The best model has often been shown to be a simple random walk, which implies that the price movements are unpredictable. In this thesis models that have been somewhat successful in the past are developed and investigated for different forecasting horizons. The aim is to find models that significantly dominate
Although deep learning has made advances in a plethora of fields, ranging from financial analysis to image classification, it has some shortcomings for cases of limited data and complex models. In these cases the networks tend to be overconfident in their prediction even when erroneous - something that exposes its applications to risk. One way to incorporate an uncertainty measure is to let the ne
To fully decarbonise the energy system, electrification is needed as one of the most important strategies for reducing carbon dioxide emissions in Sweden and Europe. The deployment of renewable energy resources plays a central role in electrification and will continue to increase. In January 2024, Svenska Kraftnät published a long-term market analysis with four future scenarios regarding the devel
Due to the recent financial turmoil we have noticed how exposed our financial situations are.

Section 1(2) of the Employment Protection Act (EPA) states that members of the employer’s family are exempt from most of the provisions of the Act. The purpose of the thesis is to investigate how private relations between the parties to the employment affect the employment relationship. Using a legal dogmatic method, the essay answers the following questions: (i) how has the exemption of the emplo
Many studies have over the years utilized gravity models derived from trade theories to investigate how various factors affect trade in agricultural goods. Although technological improvements could be considered in such models, few studies have considered this topic in depth, leaving a void to fill. To partly fill this void, this study has chosen the silk sector to analyze the impact of technologi
Silver in the form of nanoparticles has increasingly been used as an antibacterial component in consumer products over the last decade. The most common use of nanosilver is in sports clothing. A study has shown that 10-98% of the silver is washed out after 10 washes, which in itself could question the use of the silver. Generally the marketing from companies producing nanosilver products are vague

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate different scales of mobility and social networks in Southern Scandinavia around 7000 BC. An essential basis for this work is the hypothesis that the conical core pressure blade technology, a specific method for producing lithic blades, reached Scandinavia from the east. The process has been discussed and verified in several earlier studies.The study is The purpose of this thesis is to investigate different scales of mobility and social networks in Southern Scandinavia around 7000 BC.

The seventeenth century saw the culmination of what has traditionally been called “Lutheran Orthodoxy”. Earlier a rather underestimated period, the time of “Lutheran Orthodoxy” has started to attract a fairer share of attention within the concept of Confessional Culture (recently coined by Professor Dr. Thomas Kaufmann). An enormously important but sometimes slightly overlooked part of this cultur
