The information in the abstract is translated from the arcaheological report:
Due to reconstruction of the electric main system in the Offerby-Ervasteby area, Motala municipality, the Swedish National Heritage Board's contract archaeology division, UV Öst, has performed a preliminary investigation, since the trenching was conducted nearby a known archaeological site and possible settlement sites. Four areas (objects) were selected for the antiquarian inspection. In two of them trial trenches were excavated. The other two were affected to such a small extent that no archaeological measures needed to be taken. Within Object II (site RAÄ 176:1, Motala parish) settlement remains were discovered, probably from a later chronological phase than the Stone Age remains of RAÄ 176. The remains were excavated. No archaeological remains were found within Object IV.
