shoredate: Shoreline Dating of Stone Age Sites on the Norwegian Skagerrak
Coast
Provides tools for shoreline dating Stone Age sites located on the
Norwegian Skagerrak coast using methods presented in Roalkvam (2023)
<doi:10.1016/j.quascirev.2022.107880>. Shoreline dating is based on
the present-day elevation of a site, a reconstruction of past relative
sea-level change, and empirically derived estimates of the likely elevation of
the sites above sea-level when they were in use. The geographical and temporal
coverage of the method thus follows from local geological reconstructions of
shoreline displacement and the degree to which settlements in the region have
been found to have been located on or close to the shoreline when they were in
use. Methods for numerical treatment and visualisation of the dates are
provided, along with basic tools for evaluating the location of sites within
the region and corresponding variation in local shoreline displacement.
