Especially if one looks on older maps! What's so fragrant is that the areas
where they made test pits in all but one case are one where anyone who read
the documentation from earlier excavations carefully would have known that
the material found down to 1,5-2 meter were removed (!) from the place and
or mixed....... it's like digging in same 1 x 1 square meter that been
excavated many times before.

And your evidence for this is?

Can't say that I am impressed of the information presented from this latest
digging on where and how they performed. Not at all. Their comments re the
markradar etc tells that they aren't familiar with the equipment.

'Their'? I guess this is typical of the standard of your 'research'. You
read what a reporter says, not even a quote, and then assume that they
knowledge of the people he is writing about is shown in the reporters
words.

Well there
are those that are and they weren't named in the material. First time the
markradar was tested was almost 50 years ago. A then military invention of a
person at that time working for SAAB's military plant. He and other
scientist discussed the testings back then in late 1950's. His children and
many of us other heard about the development into mid 1970's. It wasn't
until very late it came 'out' into public and official knowledge. While the
inventor is dead there are at some of the Geologic dept in Sweden persons
with long knowledge of how to use the equipment and how one see the
difference between for exampl iron-bearing stone and iron-bearing
sandlayers.....


And you've made up your mind on the basis of a newspaper article without
seeing their report. Again, typical of your lack of scholarship. And you
are the real 'naysayer' here, you say 'no' to anything that suggests you
may be wrong.
