This folder contains all the necesary scripts to download, query, and store data from selected prehistoric finds from the Swedish National Heritage Board (RAA; Riksantikvarieämbetet). This data can be also accessed from the Open Data Portal (Öppna data-portalen; https://www.raa.se/hitta-information/oppna-data/oppna-data-portal/). As they are, data is difficult to use for research purposes and the scripts provided allow for the extraction of several Neolithic and Bronze Age sites. The .qmd file can be used as description of what the scripts do. In order to reproduce the dataset, only the "script.R" needs to be run. 
The queries have been built in R (v. 4.4.1) and are fully reproducible, documented, and available from the author's GitLab page (https://gitlab.com/bilottigiacomo/raa-queries). In this folder, also the final results and some images are provided.
