Langdysse in Bulbro Skov

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
BW

The Langdysse in Bulbro Skov (forest), is a 30 × 15 m long dolmen from the Neolithic Age east of Sorø and south of Tuelsø (lake) on the Danish island of Zealand . The megalithic system of the funnel beaker culture (TBK) was created between 3500 and 2800 BC. Chr.

24 of the curb stones, which are at a greater distance from one another and which originally completely surrounded the barren bed , mark the only partially preserved barren bed, especially in the east and south. Only the remainder of an ancient dolmen with two stones remains from the chambers . They are in the last third before the Ostend. The long dolmen was not subjected to any archaeological investigation. Finds from excavations or looting are not known.

Laser scans of the earth's surface show that there were prehistoric fields in Bulbro Skov that could have been created at the same time as the long dolmen. Low border walls of rectangular fields stand out like a net on the ground.
