Great stone graves near Gnoien

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The megalithic graves near Gnoien were two megalithic tombs from the Neolithic funnel cup culture (TBK) near Gnoien in the Rostock district ( Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania ). They were destroyed around 1840. The exact location of the graves is not known. There is also no information about alignment, dimensions and type. In the destruction of a plant, a funnel cup temporal dünnblattiges were hatchet of flint and ax from bluish-white sandstone found. The latter can be assigned to the early Neolithic individual grave culture and is likely to come from a subsequent burial . Both items were given to the Association for Mecklenburg History and Archeology. The hatchet has not survived, the ax is now part of the collection of the Archaeological State Museum Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania in Schwerin .
