Summary, in English

The article is about the labours, dealing with stone transport, quarrying and building of the big chatedrals in Skåne. How they later are emploied in constructing the Parrish churches and after that are found as colonising and iron producing farmers in the waste land of northern Skåne. The thesis is that it is a big group of slaves, imported from the west slavonic area. First used as Construction workers and finaly found as the kings farmers. A great and succesfull integration Project.
