archaeological mill discoveries
From an article about an archaeological book about mill discoveries. Could someone please enlighten me?
Example: Tidligere forkdere har sat lighedstegn mellem begrebet 'skvatmoelle (af skvat, der betyder 'lille smule vand' og moelle) og horisontal moelle.
Advice appreciated!
