Summary

Description
English: The Stockholm area, around 5000 years BC (7 000 BP). The map shows post-glacial rebound and shoreline displacement in comparison with present-day Stockholm county. The extent of land at the time (yellow) was smaller than today, with water (blue tones) covering areas that are above the shoreline today. Present-day shorelines, county and municipality borders shown for comparison.
Svenska: Stockholmsområdet omkring 5 000 år f. Kr (7 000 år före nutid). Landytorna (gult) var begränsade jämfört med idag. Vatten (blåa nyanser) täckte områden som idag ligger över havsytan till följd av landhöjningen. Samtida strandlinjer samt läns- och kommungränser visas för jämförelse.
