Thirteen round barrows are located in the Bretziner heathen and its surrounding in Boitzenburg (Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania/Germany). The barrows date from 3500-3000 BC. Most of them contained a wooden coffin in the center, which was covered with stones. Later, urns were also buired in the tumulus.
