	ABSTRACT (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-05)
		The Church Topography of the Eastern Settlement and the Excavation of the Benedictine convent at Narsarsuaq in the Uunartoq Fjord.
		I have attempted to prove that the Benedictine convent actually was established at Narsarsuaq in Uunartoq Fjord, and that the church I found in 1946 at Narsaq in the same fjord is the Vagar Church of the sources.
		I have demonstrated that there were at least two Norse settlements at Narsarsuaq, the oldest of which may date back to the landnáma period, and that there existed at least one church before the one excavated, which may be dated about 1300.

		Narsarsuaq harbour was fairly busy with about 30 small boats on two spurs from the quay.

		Since most tourists stay in Narsarsuaq and the boats tend to do return trips it can be easier to find space on the very early boats in the return direction.
