Danmark Ø Hut Foundations
Danmark Ø Hut Foundations submitted by DrewParsons : September 2013. (Vote or comment on this photo)
The Danmark Ø Hut Foundations site is located on Danmark Island at the entrance to Fønfjord in Scorsbysund, North East Greenland.

The hut circle foundations are of uncertain age but the historian on our ship thought that they might be much older than their counterparts in Rendalen (which are dated to around 800 AD and are also featured on Megalithic Portal). The site is inaccessible other than by boat for two or three months in the arctic summer due to ice conditions, or by multi day dog sled trips at other times.
