If you look at registered settlements, there are no remains that prove that Nätra have had permanent iron age settlements. Has Nätra been uninhabited before the medieval church was built? Where did the Iron Age go? The work intends to investigate which indicators there is for Nätra to have been inhabited during the Iron Age - with the medieval church as the entry point.
