FOREST AVTIVITIES – EXAMPLES
1. Cultural monuments older than from 1537 AD protected by law in Norway.2. How old are they? (or: is after/before the year 1537 very important?)3. How about the younger monuments?4. How do ”common people” experience automatically protected or not?
Forests and outfields in Northern Europe have a lot of cultural monumentsfrom different time periods. How many are registrated, and by who?

IRON PRODUCTION – DIFFERENT PERIODS
- Big blocs of slag- Air bubbles in slag- Close to river/water
- Smaller blocs of slag- ”Floating” slag
- Furnace made of stone- Still smaller blocs of slag

Coal production:In Norway from AD 500.
Coal
- Connected to iron production- Often flat bottom (1 meter in depth or less)- Most numerous of cultural monuments in forests- Not systematically located in terrain, in opposite to pitfalls
