Radiocarbon dates and evidence some of these 30 tonne structures were brought from a quarry 8km away. More in the comments on our page.. The Plain of Jars is famous for its huge stone vessels, ranging in height from 1.5 to three metres tall, These remarkable stone receptacles can occur individually, or in groups running to several hundred. While the most-famous set was arranged on the plain (hence the name), most jars can be found perched on ridges and hills, with some still shrouded by forest. All the signs are that these vessels were associated with funerary activity, but the communities responsible for them remain mysterious.</description>
