Tarzens a small Village above Ellbögen, it is on the entry to the Viggarvaley
where we found several Cupstone Alpine signeposts and Menhirs.
Here I found together with Josef Höfer 2019 this stone, in good shape. cupstoneslabs. From the translated text it seems to be a gravyard of 4 ore 5 Persons.
Proposed translation from Mr. Kirnbauer
1st slab under: " Here awake in the grave"
Left upper: "Here in the grave awake by Haghal(God)"
right upper: " Lifway goes to the grave"
upper Slab: " Here awake"
