The three low barrows in the south-eastern corner of the forest, near the municipal road, are the northern remainder of a large number of similar hills that no longer existed and extended 600 m to the south.

Over the years, the "Langelands Museum" has examined twelve of the already plowed over low burial mounds with single or double stone wreaths . There one found urn with objects from the end of the Nordic Bronze Age , about 500 BC. In hill 6 of the former "Nygård burial ground" it was a thin, bronze spiral ring .
