Round Barrows in Swietokrzyskie. A large Bronze Age round barrow is located North-East of the village of Kolosy, in a prominent point of the landscape. It has 13 x 11m in diameter, although originally it was larger. At its top there is a statue of Lord Jesus Christ. Some 100m east of the monument there was another barrow, now ploughed out, in which burials of the Late Neolithic/Early Bronze Age Corded Ware culture were found.
