The glacier archaeologists recently discovered a pair of second prehistoric skiing in Digervarden, a mountain in Norway Central. Ski flew to radioactive carbon 1,300 years ago, just 5 meters away seven years ago. As global warming led to more glacier retreats, many artifacts were surface to trigger the need for additional archaeological research in the region.
that Ice secret Initiatives have been started by the InnLandet County Council and OSLO Cultural History Museum through the Glacier Archaeological Program. Lars Holger Pilø, an archaeologist and co -director of Initiative, said that prehistoric skiing is the best preserved pair in the world.
“This discovery is groundbreaking for two reasons. First, humans show that they have used high mountains for hunting and transportation during the winter. Second, the amazing preservation of skiing, including binding, can create and experiment with the exact replicas about how the philosophers are skiing.” Pilø added, “It provides completely new insights and new insights on how to use it.”
Each ski is made of another tree, one from the birch and the other from the pine. However, their proximity and radioactive carbon date suggest that this is used as pairs at the time, even if it is not originally intended. This discovery suggests the values of those in this harsh landscape and those on the tree line.
To make such a discovery, scientists must first identify the location with the potential of archaeological discovery. The ice patch is more safer for finding a well -preserved piece, as the ice can be destroyed under the mountains and the broken relics. Archaeologists use ice patches to search for promising sites by using both aviation photos and satellite images and local information of hikers and reindeer livestock. PILø said in 2006 that a breakthrough development occurred when major ice rust revealed hundreds of artificial materials and inspired the secrets of the ICE program.
Pilø told Glacierhub, “The rapid melting of the glacier due to artificial climate change reveals the archaeological objects that have been frozen for centuries or thousands of years. In general, the melting ice performs excavation for scientists, but in the case of prehistoric skiing, it was necessary to select ice to help remove artificial materials.
In order to reveal these important artifacts, climate change has helped the development of archaeological discovery, which can help humanity to understand how humanity deals with past climate change. Phil ø said that this historical ability, which adapts to climate change, is “one of the most prominent insights.”
Pilø said, “For example, during the small ice age (535-660 CE) (535-660 CE) (a significant climate cooling season), the local local agriculture was already on the edge of the survivability, so faced with serious challenges. We can see evidence that hunting activity increases through the number of lost arrows in ice. “
This arrow shows a change in human activity on changes in climate. Recent skiing found in Hi Mountain also shows that humans have used this area in winter. PILø explained that the classic skiing proved that scientists traveled at a higher altitude in winter than they once thought, because the previous ski discovery came from a low area served for cross -country skiers.
This arrow and skiing helps to decipher human story archaeologists. They can also talk with the environmental story of the earth’s natural history. Pilø described later antiques small glaciers are reflected in triring records across Europe. Nicole daviPaleontologist Lamont-Doherty Earth ObservatoryThe glacier’s tribing laboratory told Glacierhub: “The tribing record adds hundreds of years to the current warming that we are seeing. Most of the weather records are less than 100 years, so you can fully understand the scope of the climate cycle by using Paleo information.”
Through the wooden ring, we can build a record of the earth’s climate history, which provides better context in today’s climate change, and helps to better understand the archaeological discovery. “Paleontical history can add context to things like human migration and social collapse.
Scientists on discovery, such as triring records and relics found in Norway, can discern that the earth was not only seen as thousands of years ago, but also how human society was able to adapt to such conditions. Nevertheless, it can be difficult to connect the gap between the artifact and the wooden ring, Pilø pointed out.
“The relationship between these archaeological discoveries and paleontologies is more complex and unknown of glacier archeology. These discoveries can provide clues to past climatic conditions, but it is difficult to interpret this relationship.” Pilø told Glacierhub, “Glacier archeology is still a young and evolving field, and we have begun to explain how these artifacts can deepen our understanding of past climate and human elasticity in the changing environment.
There is still a secret to reveal the ice. As the glaciers continue to melt and more artifacts are exposed, the mysterious paintings on the history of humanity and the earth can slowly focus and provide insight into how to solve the challenges of the changing climate.
