Cultural History Map (CHK2) - Settlements
Description
File with village names and type of village. The settlement landscape of Fryslân essentially dates from the twelfth to the fifteenth century. On the threshold of the New Age (1500), most of the still existing settlements were already present as independent fairgrounds or church villages with their own bordered village area. After that, a few more were added. The settlement typology used here is based on both morphological, genetic and functional aspects. The settlements are divided into nine categories: Cities; Vlecken; Terp villages; Road villages; Esdorpen; Vaartdorpen; Peat colonies; Heathland villages; Other villages (including cross villages and dike villages).
