Skradarve submitted by Aska : Site in Gotland Sweden The standing rock, the lying ones are beyond the trees on the right. (Vote or comment on this photo)
in Gotland

A stone ship described on the 1:50,000 Swedish topographic map “TERRÄNGKARTEN 538 Hoburgen” and “539 Hemse” as ‘skeppssättning’ (= ship (-shaped stone) setting), also appears in the digital map of RIKSANTIKVARIEÄNVTET (=Swedish National Heritage Board) only when it is enlarged in an adequate scale.

In the boundary area of a wood between a meadow, 4 rather huge rocks stands or lie. They might be a remaining of a giant stone ship, who could remove or destroy the other huge rocks?
