Erik Schia, född 3 december 1946, död 24 oktober 1993 i Oslo i Norge, var en norsk arkeolog. Han var under ett antal år ledare för utgrävningar i Gamlebyen i Oslo.
Erik Schia hade en magisterexamen i arkeologi. Från 1975 till sin bortgång 1993 i en arbetsplatsolycka var han chef för Riksantikvarens utgrävningskontor i Oslo.
Han skrev ett antal publikationer om medeltidens Oslo och var en viktig opinionsbildare för att få till stånd utgrävningar av Medeltidsstaden i Oslo.
” | Det er nå vi har sjansen til å gjøre dette området til en attraksjon ikke bare for Oslos egne innbyggere, men for mange flere. La dette bli vår tids gave til byens 1000-årsjubileum. Som vi har sett tidligere i denne boka, kjenner vi ikke noe eksakt år for byens grunnleggelse. Fremveksten og den videre utviklingen av byen var en langsom prosess, men siden den første bymessige bebyggelsen innerst i Viken kan dateres til årene omkring år 1000, vil det ikke være urimelig om vi feirer byens tusenårsjubileum i år 2000. | „ |

År 2011 döptes platsen vid uppfarten till Geitabru i Gamlebyen i Oslo, nära ruinen till Clemenskirken, döpt till Erik Schias plass.

No. XLIX. CITY OF CHRISTIANIA. |
---|
This view was taken from a position recommended by the late honourable Bernard Anker, on the side of a mountain called Egeberg, from whence the city of Christiania, and its noble background of mountains, are seen to the greatest advantage, on which account the spot is the pride of the inhabitants, and the admiration of foreigners. At the bottom of the hill on the right, are some remains of the old city of Opsloe, which was burnt in the year 1624. The buildings on the left, are Opsloe Kirke, and a lunatic hospital. A new road winds on to the right, between some good houses and the ancient palace belonging to the bishops of this see, a high gothic building, with red tiles, seen on the right margin of the picture. This edifice was the residence of the kings and princes of Denmark, in their visits to the city. Across the bay, on the gentle declivity of the hills, is situated the new city, denominated Christiania. Its principal object on the left is the ancient garrison, called Aggerhus, with its fortifications and walls, projected on a rocky peninsula, at the extremity of the city ; to the right are observed the red warehouses, wharfs, and ships in the harbour, up to the custom house ; in succession are seen the hospitable quadrangular mansion, and garden of the Ankers ; the cathedral church, the museum, hospitais, schools, prison, &c. &c Situated on a middle hill, is seen the ancient church called Aggers, and at a greater elevation near the margin, is Ulivold, the seat of John Collett, Esq. Numerous villas are interspersed among the high grounds, as far as Bogstad, which is situated at the feet of the distant hills, nearly over the great church. In the vale below Aggers, is the botanic garden, and not far distant from it, is the site of the new Royal University, now erecting, with residences for nineteen professors, and two lecturers. Parallel with the town, is a long slip of land, from the bridge to below the custom house, having the river on one side, and the bay on the other; on it are the extensive timber and deal-yards, covered rope-yards, places for careening ships, great cranes for putting in their masts, &c. &c. The ships proceed to and from sea, under the walls of the garrison, in the deep water. The other part of this spacious bay, between Christiania and Opsloe, is navigable for boats only, being choaked up with the saw-dust perpetually descending into it from the numerous saw-mills up the river, although a machine is continually at work to remove it. The new road from the city on the foreground, winds up over Egeberg, and leads on to Mos, Frederickstad, Swinesund, and Sweden. The approach to Christiania on this side, is over the summit of the mountain, where on emerging from a forest, the traveller obtains his first view of the city, spread out before him in its whole extent, and producing with its beautiful and magnificent scenery, a grand and most picturesque effect. The prospect is pronounced by tourists, to be unequalled in Europe. The supreme governor of Norway, resides in this town, and the high court of justice is held here. Christiania is also the seat of the primate bishop, who with three others, exercises the ecclesiastical jurisdiction of all Norway. The garrison, under the superintendance of a commandant, has its hospital and school. There is another hospital for the town. The trade is often very considerable, and there is an abundant supply of all sorts of game, provisions, and foreign delicacies. The inhabitants are hospitable and friendly ; scarcely a traveller enters it, without receiving invitations from the opulent, to their public tables.
