Based on a table covering hoards in Scania he connected the Scanian war 1676-1679 with a contemporary cocncentration of hoards in Scania.

In any event the map shows vividly how the hoards during the 1670s are concentrated to the areas (above all Scania and Bohuslän) which suffered during the Scanian war.
