Båstad Gravfält submitted by NeolithicFanatic : The site as when you first approach it via the forest path. (Vote or comment on this photo)
Situated in the forest on the eastern side of Båstad (Skåne, Sweden) are the remains of a "gravfält" ie. a grave field containing the remains of 13 burial mounds from the Bronze Age. The majority of the site is hidden beneath the overgrowth, making it hard to see the entire thing, but a section of it has been cleared. The largest mound in the centre of the grave field.

The two mounds that are seen located nearby among the houses are both believed to have been part of the grave field as they are both aligned with the barrows in the forest.
