Stone Row / Alignment in Bohemia, Czech Republic
Extensive archaeological survey in this area took 40 years (1953-1992). The location Bylany belongs among the best explored neolithic finding fields in Europe. Evidence of the permanent settlement dates to 4500 BC.
Nothing much to see here these days except the remains of the interesting stone alignment. At least five stones form row with almost exact orientation to summer solicit. The row was reconstructed in 1998.
