Abstract
28 out of a total of 78 well preserved pine (Pinus sylvestris) logs, excavated in 1980 in the city of Trondheim, near the mouth of the river Nidelven, have been treated dendrochronologically. This treatment has resulted in a 271 year-long floating chronology. The absolute dating of this chronology was achieved by means of a standard tree-ring chronology reaching back to 1648, established on the basis of 23 living pine trees from the nearby Jonsvatnet area. The cross-correlation, undertaken for the last 60 years of the floating chronology, dates this at 1471 to 741. The dating has been verified by means of Eidem's standard chronology from Selbu. The dendrochronological dating verifies the archaeological interpretation given.
