This hunebed turned out to be of a unique type, its passage possessing only a single endstone, the other end being the entranceway. The hunebed was officially named as G5 Heveskesklooster because sites of three long-vanished hunebedden (G2, G3 and G4) had already been established by archaeologists.
As a result of discoveries of a few flints, axes and amber beads dating from the Funnel Beaker Culture it was determined that the hunebed was originally constructed around 3400 BCE.
