The Dolmen of type Schwörstadt found in southern Baden-Wuerttemberg , and in the law of Franche-Comté and the west Switzerland . The plants that first appeared in the second half of the 4th millennium BC are not very numerous and poorly documented, as they were often excavated as early as the 19th century. They are named after the Heidenstein , a plant in Schwörstadt in the district of Lörrach in Baden-Württemberg and are assigned to the Horgen culture . Neolithic monuments are an expression of the culture and ideology of Neolithic societies. Their origin and function are considered to be the hallmarks of social development.
The dolmens are built above ground and are covered on three sides by a hill. Your floor plan is rectangular, square. They are relatively small, made of flat limestone and have a so-called soul hole as access . Systems in trapezoidal hills are of the Aillevans type .
