Chambered Tomb in Groningen
This megalithic tomb has been mentionend in historical sources. Field surveys near Onnen by J.E. Musch (who also discovered G2 and G3 at Glimmer es) in 1968 lead to the discovery of an area with granite fragments and Funnel beaker sherds. Several further examinations make it highly probable, that the area represents the location of the destroyed megalithic tomb. A detailed report is available here : H.A. GROENENDIJK, J.N. LANTING & H.
