Úrtak
Skordýr er vanligt at finna steinrunnin í
mógv í Føroyum. Av tí at sløgini hvørt í
sínum lagnum kunnu hava serstakan tørv á
búlendi, kunnu tey geva góðar og gagnlig-
ar ábendingar um mannaárin á náttúruum-
hvørvið. Við at kanna tílíkar fundir kunnu
vit gera greiðari ta mynd, sum sáðgreining-
in gevur. Kanningar av skordýraleivdum
úr Mykinesi og Tjørnuvík hava ikki sannað
búseting eldri enn hina norrøna, sum sáð-
greiningar hava sýnt, tó at vera kann, at
annað fekst burturúr við víðtøkari rann-
sóknum.
